Crustless Quiche With Cauliflower and Herbs image

This quiche recipe is easy to make and very impressive! The fresh herbs add so much flavor to the recipe. Make sure to go light on the lavender... a little goes a long way. The star ingredient is the champagne cheddar cheese. There's a slightly nutty and fruity flavor that complements all the other flavors wonderfully.

Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 Tbsp olive oil, for sauteeing
3 large cauliflower florets, sliced 1/4" thick
1/2 large sweet Maui onion
1 celery rib
2 Tbsp chopped fresh parsley
1 Tbsp chopped fresh rosemary
1 tsp fresh thyme leaves
1 Tbsp chopped fresh sage
1 pinch lavender, crushed (the tiniest pinch! you don't want too much)
6 medium eggs
1 can(s) coconut milk, unsweetened
4 oz grated champagne cheddar cheese
GARNISH
1 tomato, sliced
1/4 c chopped fresh green onion tops or chives
sea salt flakes

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat Oven to 425 F.
  • 2. Saute the cauliflower sliced in olive oil until tender; then set aside.
  • 3. Saute the onions and celery until caramelized.
  • 4. Stir in all the herbs and saute a minute or two more until they're wilted. Be sure to go light on the lavender, but don't leave it out. Too much lavender can ruin it, but just enough adds a lovely aromatic note.
  • 5. Spread the onion-celery-herb mixture evenly in a quiche pan, then top with cooked cauliflower slices. Sprinkle with salt to taste.
  • 6. Whip the eggs and coconut milk until smooth.
  • 7. Pour egg mixture over the vegetables.
  • 8. Top evenly with grated champagne cheddar. (I found this cheese at the grocery store. I'm sure there are several brands, but I used Deitz & Watson.)
  • 9. Bake 25 to 30 minutes until golden on top.
  • 10. Garnish with tomato slices and chives.
  • 11. Sprinkle with sea salt flakes and serve immediately. (The sea salt flakes were a gift from my daughter that she got while in Paris a few years ago.)

Overall, I thought this quiche was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

I had trouble getting the crust to hold together. I think I might have needed to cook it for a little longer.

This quiche was a bit bland for my taste. I think I would add more herbs and spices next time.

I'm not a huge fan of quiche, but this recipe changed my mind. The cauliflower crust was a nice change from the traditional pastry crust, and the quiche was very flavorful. I would definitely recommend this recipe.
