    The beauty of quiches is how easy they are! And how delicious 🙂 I don't think I would even miss the crust!

    I love quiche...and this one sounds wonderful. Unfortunately I ma the only one in the house who like it so I rarely make it. Maybe I should think about making some small ones. Do you think this would freeze well?

    Hi Catherine,
    You are correct, there is nothing like a great quiche. They are perfect for anytime, lunch, brunch, or even a light dinner. Plus, you can add so many wonderful veggies, or ingredients. I like this recipe as you use a low fat cottage cheese. Which is a good choice. I have a package of French style frozen green beans in the freezer. Perfect, now I just need the low fat cottage cheese, and I am ready to make this delicious dish! Thanks for sharing.
    Blessings Dottie :).
