Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 3 eggs
- ½ zucchini, grated
- ½ carrot, grated
- ½ onion, grated
- 1 cup canned tuna, drained
- 1 tbsp fresh basil, chopped
- 1 tbsp fresh dill, chopped
- 3 tbsp cream cheese
- 3 tbsp oats
- Salt, to taste
- ½ tsp black pepper
Instructions
- Prepare: Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Chop the basil and dill, then grate the zucchini, carrot, and onion. Drain the canned tuna thoroughly to remove excess liquid.
- Mixing: In a mixing bowl, blend the cream cheese with the eggs until the mixture is smooth and almost lump-free. Add the grated vegetables, drained tuna, chopped herbs, oats, salt, and pepper. Stir until all ingredients are evenly combined.
- Baking: Line a small springform pan or baking pan with parchment paper. Alternatively, use a muffin pan with liners to create mini quiches. Pour the mixture into your chosen pan and bake for about 20 minutes, or until the quiche sets and is cooked through. Oven times can vary, so watch carefully towards the end.
- Slice and Serve: Allow the quiche to cool slightly before releasing it from the pan. Slice and serve immediately, or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days for meal prep convenience.
Notes
- This recipe is naturally gluten-free and can be made dairy-free by substituting cream cheese with a dairy-free alternative.
- Using oats helps bind the quiche without the need for a crust.
- Feel free to customize herbs and veggies based on preference or seasonal availability.
- For mini quiches, adjust baking time slightly, reducing it to about 15 minutes.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and reheat gently before serving.
