A hearty, meat-filled quiche can be breakfast, lunch, or dinner. If you skip the meat, it’s a great main course on #MeatlessMonday or during #Lent, and is a perfect way to use up #Leftovers!
This week I made more chicken thighs than we could eat, so they became the star of this spicy main dish pie! I served it alongside a peppery arugula salad and a big glass of #WesterlyWines Côte Blonde Syrah.
Easy Crustless BBQ Chicken Quiche
- 5 Large Eggs
- 1/8 Cup Heavy Whipping Cream
- 1/4 Cup Whole Milk
- 1 Cup Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese (Or any type you choose)
- 2 Cups Chopped Cooked Chicken Thighs
- 1/4 Cup Chopped Onion
- 1/2 Cup Sliced Mushrooms (Any type)
- 1/2 – 6 oz Can Diced Green Peppers or Jalapeños (If desired)
- 2 Cups Fresh Greens (Any type I used Spinach)
- Olive Oil
- Salt & Pepper to taste
- 2 TBLS Low Carb BBQ Sauce (I use Stone Brewing Arrogant Bastard)
Preheat oven to 350° F and grease a 9 x 9 square baking pan or Quiche/pie pan generously with olive oil. Add 1/2 cup of the cheese to the bottom of the pan and set aside.
In a medium skillet, over medium-high heat, add 2 TBLS Olive Oil (I used garlic infused oil). Add onions, jalapeños, and mushrooms and sauteé until onions are translucent and begin to soften a bit. Add the spinach, another TBLS of olive oil, and cook another 30 seconds or so, just until the spinach begins to wilt. Remove from pan and set aside.
Add chopped chicken thighs to the pan. Stir in the BBQ sauce and cook about 2 minutes. Remove from pan and scatter across the cheese layer in the prepared pan. Top the chicken with the Spinach mixture, making sure to distribute evenly around the pan. Top with the remaining cheese.
In a medium bowl or large mixing cup, combine the eggs, milk, cream, salt & pepper. Whip thoroughly with a wire whisk.
Pour the egg mixture over the vegetable and cheese layers in the pan. Put pan into preheated oven and cook for 40-45 minutes, or until center is set. Remove pan from oven and cool on a wire rack. If eating immediately, slice into 8 wedges and serve warm.
Suggested toppings:
- Guacamole
- Sour Cream
- Chives
- Sliced Avocado
If meal prepping, slice into 8 sections and put into a large container in the refrigerator to eat during the week. To reheat: Microwave a single portion on high for 30 seconds, top and enjoy! #ThisGirlLovesToEat


One of the easiest ways to meal prep for the week is to throw a Quiche or two together while you are prepping other meals. A quiche can be breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It can be dinner on #MeatlessMonday or during #Lent, and is a great way to clean out your #Leftovers and veggie drawer once a week!

I just ate my first true #CheatMeal since going Keto 4 months ago. 3 huge, luscious, cheesy, hand tossed pieces of pizza from my favorite neighborhood pizza place, 
Every year, for about 5 weeks, at the Highland Springs Ranch in Cherry Valley, California, one of the best smelling, and best tasting, festivals takes place on the largest organic lavender farm in Southern California.
I love a big, juicy cheeseburger but they can get boring after a while. This recipe is one that will definitely take away the boredom and might even be one that I can whip out at a tailgate this football season to change it up a bit!





A friend complained that she was spending #SuperBowlSunday at the home of someone who “only eats Keto,” like that was a fate worse than death for her snack choices during the game. To me that sounded like heaven. She had no idea what to bring, so I suggested she bring this #KetoFriendly dip with plenty of celery sticks and a couple of bags of
While veggies are admittedly limited during the most strict part of Keto, there are many ways to incorporate very flavorful options in moderation. This soup, that serves 4 is one of them. The higher #GoodFat to calorie percentage, from the olive oil, is perfect for Keto followers!
