Notes

Crustless Version: Depending on the size of your pie crust, you may have extra liquid. If so, I recommend pouring the additional milk and egg liquid into a greased custard cup or small oven-safe glass container and baking it like a crustless quiche. You may also choose to omit the crust altogether and layer your cheese, veggies, and milk/egg/seasonings in a greased pie pan for a crustless quiche.
Low FODMAP Option:
  • Omit the onions. Saute your low-FODMAP vegetables of choice in place of asparagus. Ideas include bell peppers, tomatoes, green beans, broccoli (heads), and zucchini.
  • Use lactose-free cow's milk in place of regular milk.
Vegetable & Cheese Variations
  • Cheddar cheese + Broccoli
  • Mozzarella + Tomatoes
  • Feta Cheese + Bell Peppers
  • Gouda + Spinach
  • Butternut Squash + Goat Cheese
