Meat Crust Quiche Paleo Recipe by Juli Bauer

heavy cream

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

cheddar cheese

🥗Healthier: low-fat cheese

💰Cheaper: processed cheese

Low-fat cheese reduces calories while still providing flavor.

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Cook the ground beef in a skillet over medium heat until browned, about 5-7 minutes.

Add chopped bacon to the skillet and cook until crispy, about 3-4 minutes.

Remove excess fat from the skillet and add diced onion and minced garlic; sauté until translucent, about 2-3 minutes.

Stir in chopped spinach and diced red bell pepper; cook until spinach is wilted, about 2 minutes.

In a bowl, whisk together eggs, heavy cream, salt, black pepper, and nutmeg until well combined.

Spread the cooked meat mixture evenly in a greased pie dish to form the crust.

Pour the egg mixture over the meat crust, ensuring even distribution.

Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese on top of the egg mixture.

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, until the quiche is set and the top is golden brown.

Let the quiche cool for 10 minutes before slicing.

Garnish with chopped parsley before serving.
