Baseless Quiche

Sometimes I'm just not in the mood for pastry, or I can't be bothered making it, but I still want quiche. Tada! Quiche with no base. Kind of like a giant omelette...


Serves 4

4 Eggs
1 1/2 cups Milk
3 Tbsp Butter, melted
1/2 cup Self-Raising Flour
1 1/2 cups Cheese, grated
2 rashers Bacon, sliced
1 Red Pepper, chopped
1 Onion, diced
1 clove Garlic, finely chopped
1 Tomato

You can take creative license with the fillings. It is also delicious with spinach, feta and mushrooms or with chorizo instead of bacon. It's also a good way to use up the leftover meat and veg from a roast. 

Lightly fry bacon, onion, garlic and capsicum. 


In a bowl whisk together eggs, milk, butter and flour. Fold in cheese and fillings and season to taste. Pour into a 24cm pie or casserole dish (not a pie dish with a removable bottom like I almost did, forgetting I had no base) and lay thin slices of tomato on top. 


Bake at 180C for 40 mins or until set and golden brown on top. Serve hot or cold with salad.
