A baked quiche is our go-to when we feel like something a bit more “fancy” for breakfast or when we have company over. It’s satisfying, and can easily be tailored to suit the flavors you’re craving.

When I made this low carb quiche I had just picked up a fresh red bell pepper, and a large bag of spinach from a local organic farm.

At first I was going to make a pasta of some sorts with these ingredients but I thought why not make the most of these fresh ingredients and bake up a delicious breakfast instead?

I don’t know about you, but in the morning’s I don’t usually feel like standing in the kitchen cooking for a long time. So I do whatever I can to make breakfast simple, quick, yet still very satisfying.

We don’t always eat this quiche for breakfast, in fact, my go-to breakfast is usually just a bowl of oatmeal and L.J’s go-to is a hearty mug of Bulletproof coffee!

But, I was feeling like something savory, so I took the fresh ingredients we had, tossed them all in a dish in the oven and 40 minutes later we were stuffing ourselves silly. Also, the night before we had a bit of a carb overload (pizza), so I wanted to keep breakfast fairly light.

The great thing about quiche recipes is that they come together in a flash and you can customize them however you like!
