Crustless Roasted Vegetable Quiche

I really like quiche, but I like it even more when I don’t have to make a crust. It’s just one less thing to worry about while I focus on the filling. And we all know the filling is the important stuff…and the cheesy topping, of course. This Crustless Roasted Vegetable Quiche covers all the bases; no crust, all filling and a beautiful brown cheesy topping.

This roasted vegetable quiche is fairly simple to put together. Firstly, as the name implies, it involves roasting a bunch of vegetables ahead of time. Either roast them fresh for this dish, or use extra leftovers from a previous night’s meal. From there, it’s the basic quiche ingredients: eggs, milk, grated cheese, and seasonings. This dish is a great option if you want a meatless meal one night, while still getting protein and good ol’ vegetables.

I roast vegetables a lot, so incorporating them into this quiche seems like a no-brainer for me. To roast them, I simply toss a bunch of vegetables with light olive oil, spread them out on a sheet pan, season with salt and pepper, and roast at 400 deg F (190 C) for 30-40 minutes (stirring and flipping the vegetables halfway through). Use whatever vegetables you like or whatever is in season. I often use broccoli, cauliflower, butternut squash, sweet potatoes, onions, etc. But this roasted vegetable quiche would be just as good with the likes of asparagus, zucchini, yellow squash, or bell peppers.

I use cheddar and Parmesan in this recipe, but I have also made a version that used Swiss cheese, which gave a slightly nutty flavor. It would be worth trying out with different cheese combinations to see which one you like best. I can see feta adding a nice salty flavor to the quiche.
