This crustless cottage cheese quiche recipe is simple to make and vegetables can be interchanged with what you have. If you want a knock-off of the pricey soufflé sold at a local cafe chain, just add puff pastry to the bottom of a pie tin.

Ingredients

  • nonstick cooking spray

  • 3 eggs

  • ½ cup cottage cheese

  • ¼ cup milk

  • 1 cup chopped cooked broccoli

  • ½ cup shredded Colby-Monterey Jack cheese

  • ¼ cup chopped red bell pepper

  • ½ teaspoon garlic salt

  • ⅛ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a jumbo 6-cup muffin tin with cooking spray.

  2. Combine eggs, cottage cheese, and milk in a blender or Vitamix. Blend on low speed to combine, 1 to 5 seconds. Pour mixture into a medium mixing bowl.

  3. Add broccoli, Colby-Jack cheese, and bell pepper to cottage cheese mixture; add garlic salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.

  4. Divide mixture evenly between the prepared muffin cups.

  5. Bake in the preheated oven until a knife inserted into the center of a quiche comes out clean, about 30 minutes.

Cook’s Note

You can also make this using two 5-inch pie tins.

Feel free to add cooked sausage, bacon, etc. One of my favorite combinations is chopped chicken, spinach, and mushrooms. I also love bacon, spinach, and broccoli. The cheese can also be interchanged.
