Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Healthy Vegetable Quiche.
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 350°F (175°C), setting the stage for a delicious quiche.
Step 2
While the oven warms up, grab a skillet and give it a light spritz of cooking spray.
Step 3
Heat it over medium heat, then toss in the chopped onion and zucchini.
Step 4
Sauté these vibrant veggies until they become tender and fragrant, which should take about 5 to 10 minutes.
Step 5
Meanwhile, take a microwave-safe bowl and combine the chopped cauliflower with a splash of water.
Step 6
Pop it in the microwave for about 3 minutes, or until the cauliflower is nice and tender.
Step 7
Once done, drain any excess water to keep your quiche from getting soggy.
Step 8
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the egg whites, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Step 9
Now, fold in the sautéed onion and zucchini, the tender cauliflower, and a generous handful of shredded pepperjack cheese for that extra kick.
Step 10
Pour this colorful egg mixture into a 10-inch round baking pan, spreading it evenly.
Step 11
Finally, slide the pan into your preheated oven and bake for about 25 minutes, or until the quiche is set in the center and golden on top.
Step 12
As the aroma fills your kitchen, you’ll know you’re in for a treat! Enjoy your delightful creation!.
