Quiche Lady, Tell Me More!
So without further ado, today’s special on the menu is our Spinach and Bacon Quiche. Abracadabra -This gluten-free quiche is so incredibly easy to make you will find yourself making it every week!
Our gluten-free quiche recipe has the perfect grain-free buttery, light, and flaky crust. True perfection coming from the almond flour, and arrowroot starch. I have tested this recipe with tapioca starch and potato starch. So if you happen to have those on hand, feel free to swap it. We actually melted the butter for this pie crust, and not only does it make a delicious quiche crust, but it’s a HUGE time saver!
We loaded this baby up with spinach, bacon, sundried tomatoes, and thyme – So much flavor your taste buds can’t contain. This healthy recipe is perfect for breakfast, brunch, or dinner, and is packed with lots of protein and good carbs. Natalie Way Bakes Spinach and Bacon Quiche is a savory meal waiting to happen!
Dairy-Free Me

I made this today for our lunch. My husband loved it and said it was a superb change from the other recipe used years ago with cream and dairy cheese. We are trying hard to eliminate all gluten, sugars and dairy. So, this was a huge hit! Thank you.
