In the true spirit of frugal living, I like to get the best value out of everything…including teeny bits of leftovers! Why throw anything out when you can make a homemade soup or crustless quiche?
Here’s another Tightwad Notebook’s dream recipe…long ago, I found a quick, amazingly simple recipe for crustless quiche. I would credit where I found it, but it’s handwritten without a reference. Enjoy it if you try it!!
Super Easy Crustless Quiche Recipe
Ingredients:
-1 cup milk (or substitute sour cream or half-and-half)
-1/4 cup water
-2-3 eggs slightly beaten (use 3 eggs for fluffiest quiche)
-1 cup flour
-1/2 cup grated cheese (not mozzarella but a “hard” cheese such as cheddar, feta, etc.)
-1/2 cup chopped, cooked leftover meat (chicken, ham, turkey, roast, even tuna)
-1/4 cup chopped, cooked vegetables (squeeze out the liquid, but I’ve also used frozen)
-seasoning to taste (salt, pepper, dash of nutmeg, garlic salt, etc.)
Directions:
-preheat oven to 425 degrees
-mix all the ingredients in one bowl
-pour into a greased 9-inch pie plate
-bake for 30-35 minutes
Serve hot and enjoy!
