Ingredients in this crustless bacon and greens quiche
The list of ingredients in this Crustless Quiche is short and sweet but the star of this show are the collard greens. Leftover collard greens would work great here but I use frozen chopped greens. They’re easily found at most grocery stores and the frozen version allows the skipping of all the prep and cleaning that comes with fresh collards.
Seasoning up the collards is simple with the help of my favorite Fiesta Brand Seasonings…garlic, onion, black pepper and paprika…no fuss, just the basics! My family and I have been using Fiesta Brand Seasoning since I can remember and I promise you won’t find better!
The remaining cast of characters are simple and commonly found in any keto kitchen. Bacon, eggs, cream, jack and parmesan cheeses and a little butter round out this easy recipe, but don’t mistake simplicity for mundane, this Crustless Bacon and Collard Green Quiche is out of this world!
Why Collard Greens?
Well, why not?! When I was writing my cookbook, I used collards in a few recipes and I fell in love all over again… I forgot how delicious they were! Needless to say, I’ve been slightly obsessed with them ever since. Honestly, there’s nothing much better than bacon and collards, so this quiche, with all of it’s creamy, goodness, is pure magic! And bonus…Collard greens are amazing for your and packed full of vitamin K , A and C!

Don’t worry…if you can’t find collards, sub kale or spinach!
