Crustless quiche is a no brainer in our house. We regularly throw together leftover vegies, a little cheese, and eggs fresh from our chickens together, pop into the oven and Voila! Breakfast for everyone! The caramelized onion with spinach and Gruyere is my all-time favorite. I usually use fresh spinach but the frozen box is easy, too.

I made this the other night for dinner and it was fantastic! I serve it with garden salads and nothing else and it was plenty filling. The only change I made was using extra cheese (wanted to use up the rest of the block I had), therefore I had to add 2 extra eggs. I changed nothing else and it came out beautifully! We love quiche in our house and now we have a new recipe for life. Thanks Trinkets!
