Breakfast
Crustless, Cheesy Bacon Quiche
Crustless, Cheesy Bacon Quiche
You remember the song on the popular egg commercial, “I love eggs, from my head down to my legs”? Well, I hated eggs when I was a child, so my version went like this, “I hate eggs. from my head down to my legs!” Unfortunately, my daughters have inherited my disgust towards eggs — but then a new egg dish came into our family’s recipe list — cheesy, bacon quiche. That dish has changed my and my daughter’s view on eggs completely.
But, hey! If you are trying to stick to a low-carb diet, and need a yummy breakfast dish — this recipe is perfect! It is sooooooo easy, and no one seems to remember there is suppose to be a crust.
I would love to whip this up several times a week because it is super easy and eggs are pretty cheap around these parts. Not to mention, my family loves a cheesy start to the day. They love a cheesy middle and end, too, but we’re talking breakfast here.
Ready for a low-carb, quick and easy, cheesy breakfast dish that will make your family smile? Enjoy!
