Ingredients

  • 1 Gluten Free 9" Pie Crust I like Wholly Gluten Free brand, found at Trader Joe's and many other stores!
  • 5 eggs
  • ½ cup Original Nut Pods or heavy cream if dairy is tolerated
  • ½ tsp salt
  • ¼ tsp pepper
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 cloves minced garlic
  • 1 shallot diced
  • 1 cup diced asparagus
  • 1 cup diced deli ham I like Applegate brand! You can also use cubed ham.

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 350. Let the frozen pie crust thaw on the counter for 10-15 minutes.
  • Combine the eggs, Nutpods, salt & pepper in a bowl and whisk well until combined. Set aside.
  • Heat the olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add in the diced shallot and minced garlic. Saute for 2-3 minutes until fragrant.
  • Add in the diced asparagus and saute for an additional 3-4 minutes. Add in the ham and stir for 1-2 more minutes.
  • Put the pie crust on top of a baking sheet to make it easy to transfer. Add the asparagus/ham mixture to the pie crust and use a spatula to spread it out evenly.
  • Pour the egg mixture over top. Carefully transfer the filled pie crust to the oven and bake for 50-55 minutes. The egg should be set on top.
  • Let it cool, then slice and serve!

Notes

Keep an eye on the pie crust - if it starts to get too browned, cover the quiche with foil.
Feel free to add in 1/4 cup of dairy free or regular shredded cheese to the egg mixture, if desired. 
This quiche can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
Diced broccoli florets can be subbed for the asparagus. 
To make this meat free, omit the ham and use extra asparagus or 1 cup diced broccoli.
