I’m not unfamiliar with a crustless quiche. Quiche is one of my most favorite breakfast, brunch, lunch, and dinner meals! I guess that’s one reason why I love quiche; It’s a meal appropriate at any time of day. Another thing I like about it? It’s a great way to use up leftovers!
This Taco Pie is made with just 7 ingredients and a few minutes of hands on time. The oven does most of the work for you. It’s keto friendly, low carb, and gluten free too. Plus, it’s another excuse to enjoy a taco. How can you say no to that?
This Taco Pie starts off with cooked taco meat that is then layered with a cheesy egg mixture. It’s baked to perfection in under and hour and pairs nicely with a side salad or some sort of Tex-Mex style of soup! It’s nearly 100 degrees here in Texas already, so we’ll stick with the salad for now.
Each slice of this pie comes in at under 200 calories, leaving you plenty of wiggle room for added taco toppings like hot sauce, salsa, pico, plain fat-free greek yogurt, more cheese, chives, black olives, etc! Anything and everything that you might put on your taco.
