20 Easy Quiche Recipes for Quick Meals

Written by: Mike Matthews

Ham & Cheese Hash Brown Quiche

For a brunch dish that’s simple yet impressive, this ham quiche will become your go-to.

It starts by mixing hash browns with a little butter and using that to line a pie dish. It’s par-baked before getting filled with a mixture of eggs, milk, cheese, and ham. Bake for a half hour, and then dig right in.

Ingredients

Spinach, Feta & Asparagus Quiche

There’s just something about the way asparagus and eggs taste together. And although it’s indescribable, there’s no doubt the combo can convert even stubborn veggie avoiders. The asparagus ends up with a buttery texture. Any bitter earthy flavors will fade away as the quiche cooks, bringing out its slight sweetness.

Ingredients

Pancetta Mushroom Crustless Quiche

Although it would be good with criminis alone, this mushroom quiche is even better with salty pancetta.

It comes from pork belly, but while it’s cured like bacon, it’s not smoked. It also tends to be thicker so you get big meaty pieces to sink your teeth into. That means there can be less of it without less flavor, keeping this crustless quiche not only low in carbs but in total fat too.

Ingredients

Kale & Zucchini Quiche with Sweet Potato Crust

For a crust alternative for your quiche, simply slice two sweet potatoes into rounds, and use them to line a tart dish.

Even if you love flaky, buttery crust, you’ll enjoy this nutritious swap. The sweet potatoes add rich flavor, as well as complex carbs, vitamins, and iron. Once you try this creative “crust,” you’ll want to make quiche anytime you have sweet potatoes and eggs on hand.

Ingredients

Egg White, Ham & Spinach Quiche

This crustless quiche with egg whites can be made in a large muffin pan. With only six ingredients, you can have a lean and nutritious lunch or dinner.

Any leftovers will keep for a few days in the fridge; reheat in about 15–20 seconds in the microwave, or 8–10 minutes in a toaster oven.

Ingredients

Slow Cooker Ham & Cheese Quiche

There’s no need to worry about rolling out the perfect circle of dough. Instead, make Crock Pot quiche. The dough will still need to be rolled out a bit, but then it’s pressed into the bottom of the slow cooker. So there’s no way to get it all smoothed out, which means you can rest easy while it cooks.

Your delicious quiche will be ready in three hours.

Ingredients

Crustless Cheesy Sausage Quiche

What makes this quiche surprisingly low-calorie? It has no crust, but that doesn’t mean it’s like an omelette or frittata.

The difference is in the quiche’s creamy texture, which is a bit like custard thanks to the inclusion of milk or heavy cream. And when you add cheese, everything gets even more heavenly.

Ingredients

Mini Broccoli & Cheese Quiche

These mini quiche make use of a 12-cup muffin tin, but the creativity is in the crust.

Regular sandwich bread is transformed with a biscuit cutter, or by using a drinking glass to cut out a circle from the center. Then add the filling, including broccoli and cheese, and bake for about 10 minutes. The edges of the bread will be browned, and the centers will be puffed up.

Ingredients

Chicken, Cheese & Bacon Quiche

This is one quiche that’s definitely at home on the dinner table.

Egg white quiche is usually a way to cut calories, but this recipe takes out the yolk to make room for bacon and cheese. Proving to be an exercise in balance, the quiche also has a big helping of diced chicken breast. That’s how this this is able to stay under 10 grams of fat per serving.

Ingredients

Goat Cheese, Fontina & Arugula Quiche

This cheese quiche is easy to assemble in a springform pan, but that doesn’t mean it’s simple.

The final result is a creamy quiche with a crispy hash brown crust. Although the recipe calls for arugula, you could use another leafy green like spinach, or go for just the two kinds of cheese.

Ingredients

Avocado & Chicken Quiche

If you’ve never enjoyed baked avocado, you’re in for a treat with this unique quiche.

Avocados when heated become even creamier and take on richer flavor. That’s a perfect match for the custardy quiche filling, which includes chicken and peas. It’s all set into a crispy hash brown crust, but you can top any quiche with sliced avocado for a unique treat.

Ingredients

Salmon Quiche

This gourmet quiche has a secret: it’s also low-fat. And since these are made in individual serving sizes, they’re great to serve at a brunch. Or make smaller sizes in a muffin pan to serve as appetizers at a dinner party.

No matter where you decide to indulge in these, you’ll be happy you cooked them up, especially if you made enough to have leftovers the next morning.

Ingredients

Bacon & Cheese Quiche

This is a simple quiche with a ton of flavor.

Along with the bacon, Swiss cheese, and half and half, there’s just one little ingredient to bring them all together. Rather than standard black pepper, a dash of nutmeg is used to add a little depth. Then a sprinkle of dried parsley – or fresh herbs, if you have them on hand – is the only garnish needed.

Ingredients

Colorful Vegetable Quiche

Need to use up leftover chopped veggies?

Make a colorful low-fat quiche to serve for breakfast, lunch, dinner, or snacks. And you don’t have to skimp on the crust in order to keep this within your macro targets. By using phyllo dough, you get a tender, crispy crust with fewer calories than a standard pie crust.

Ingredients

Purple Potato & Carrot Quiche

Even kids will love this vegetarian quiche because of the vibrant purple color.

But the purple potatoes add more than fun to this dish. They’re a good source of fiber, are rich in antioxidants, and contain over half the daily value of vitamin C. And purple potatoes can help lower blood pressure without causing weight gain.

Ingredients

Spinach & Feta Quiche with Asparagus-Pesto Swirl

The name of this quiche recipe sounds fancy, but it doesn’t take long to prepare the pesto in a food processor.

And instead of a premade pie or phyllo dough, there’s a no-fuss crust that only uses pantry staples like olive oil and flour. Once you get the hang of this recipe, you can have quiche on the weekends without sacrificing your lazy Sunday attitude.

Ingredients

Spinach & Salmon Quiche

This quiche features a healthy homemade crust with a mix of spelt, oat, and almond flour. But if you want to skip the work and get to the salmon, use these fillings in a ready-made crust. A few layers of phyllo dough would definitely do the trick.

Ingredients

Roasted Cauliflower, Mushroom & Goat Cheese Quiche

No matter how you slice it, every inch of this quiche is healthy.

First, a pot of water is brought to boil as step one of the quinoa crust. It’s mixed with egg and Parmesan before getting baked. Next, cauliflower and mushrooms and oven-roasted with a little olive oil, salt, and pepper. And finally, the quiche filling is whisked together and baked for about a half hour.

Ingredients

French Onion Quiche

To get all the flavor of French onion soup into a brunch-worthy tart, you have to start by caramelizing a heap of onions in a blend of olive oil, butter, and broth. Once they’re nicely browned, they’re cooled slightly while the custardy filling is prepared.

The final result is a cheesy onion quiche like no other.

Ingredients

Pear & Gorgonzola Quiche

Vegetables are excellent in quiche, so why not fruit?

This recipe makes use of the classic combo of tangy gorgonzola and crisp pears. And that’s not all. There’s also a heap of pancetta and toasted walnuts. Altogether, that makes a quiche with off-the-charts flavor.
