Start your day off right with this healthy crustless mushroom and green onion quiche. This dairy free quiche is perfect for keto and low carb diets.
Happy Friday friends! I thought I would pop on here with a quick breakfast recipe for you heading into your weekend!
This crustless mushroom and onion quiche was the perfect breakfast/brunch/all day snack for us a few weeks ago so I wanted to share it with you all. My youngest (14 months) even loved this.
Mushrooms and green onions are perfect together because that earthy mushroom flavor pairs with brightness of green onion. Mushrooms and onions are also perfect for anyone on a low carb diet.
Both contain very little net carbs making this dish a superb low carb breakfast.
Health benefits of this crustless mushroom quiche
I buy mushrooms for a few reasons, one they are super tasty. But the second reason is that they are really high in selenium.
Selenium is a trace mineral that helps with cognitive function. It plays a critical role in many functions of the body including your thyroid and metabolism.
But mushrooms aren't the only food high in selenium in this dish friends! Eggs also contain this much needed mineral. One egg contains 20 mcg's!
Most adults need around 55 mcg grams of selenium so you are getting a hefty dose in this quiche.
Brain power for the win friends!
