🧀🥩 Carnivore Crustless Ham & Cheese Quiche
Zero carb | Easy | Meal-prep friendly
🧾 Ingredients:
- 6 large eggs
- 1 cup diced ham (cooked, sugar-free)
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Swiss, or Gruyère = classic)
- 1/2 cup heavy cream or Greek yogurt (full-fat, plain, unsweetened)
- 2 tbsp butter or bacon grease, melted (optional but tasty)
- Salt & pepper, to taste (optional depending on how salty your ham is)
🔄 Strict carnivore? Use only eggs, ham, and cheese. You can skip the cream or replace it with more eggs or a bit of beef tallow for added fat.
👩🍳 Instructions:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a pie dish or small casserole dish with butter, tallow, or bacon grease.
- In a large bowl, whisk eggs until smooth.
- Mix in the heavy cream or yogurt, then stir in ham, shredded cheese, and butter or fat if using.
- Pour into your greased dish, smoothing the top. Sprinkle a little extra cheese on top if you like a golden crust.
- Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until the top is golden and the center is set (a knife should come out clean).
- Let cool for 5–10 minutes before slicing. It firms up a bit as it rests.
🧊 Storage:
- Fridge: Keeps well for 4–5 days
- Freezer: Wrap slices and freeze for quick meals
🍽️ Carnivore Tips:
- Want a smoky flavor? Use smoked ham or bacon bits.
- Add a few spoonfuls of bone marrow or beef tallow into the egg mix for extra richness.
- Swap ham with cooked sausage, leftover steak, or even shredded chicken thighs.
