"My aunt gave me this wonderful recipe, and I adapted it a bit," writes Mary Ann Dell from Phoenixville, Pennsylvania. "It's a tasty vegetarian dish that's easy to prepare and full of nutritious vegetables." Because it doesn't have a crust, it's just right for low-carb diets.

This was a great way to use up some leftover spinach and mushrooms. I didn't have any heavy cream so I used milk instead and it still turned out great.

I made this for breakfast this morning and it was a hit! My husband and I both loved it. The crustless design is a great way to cut down on carbs and it's still very satisfying.

This quiche was so easy to make and it turned out so well! I'm not a huge fan of mushrooms but I really enjoyed this. The spinach and cheese flavors really shine through.

Just finished making this and it was delicious! I didn't have any fresh spinach on hand so I used frozen and it turned out great. I also added a bit of crumbled bacon to the top before baking and it gave it a nice smoky flavor.
