This healthy Asparagus and Feta Crustless Quiche is easily made with just a few simple ingredients, tastes delicious and makes the perfect low-carb dish you can enjoy for any meal!

Hello spring! Easter is right around the corner and this delicious asparagus and feta crustless quiche is the perfect dish to serve your family. Not only is this quiche low in carbs, high in protein and gluten-free, but I just love how versatile this dish is as there are so many fun things you can add into this quiche. This recipe is very similar to my veggie frittata, just with less ingredients and less prep time. Both are equally delicious!

Why You’ll Love this Recipe

• This recipe is healthy, low-carb and gluten-free. It also tastes absolutely delicious!
• Easily customizable to your liking!
• There’s no crust in this quiche so it comes together really quickly with minimal prep time.
• The perfect dish that can be served for breakfast, lunch or dinner.

Ingredients You’ll Need

• eggs – I used 6 whole eggs in this recipe, but feel free to use a combination of egg whites and whole eggs, if you prefer.
• asparagus – this nutrient-rich asparagus is the star of this dish adds great taste and texture. Make sure to look for thin asparagus spears as they are more tender and better suited in this quiche.
• milk + half and half – feel free to use any type of milk you prefer. I also like to add a splash of half and half as it adds some richness and flavor to the quiche without the need for heavy cream. If you don’t want to use half and half, simply use more milk.
• feta cheese – I love using feta cheese as it adds a tanginess and creaminess to the quiche that tastes amazing with the asparagus! Gruyere cheese, goat cheese or even parmesan cheese would also work well in this recipe.
• green onions – punches up the flavor and adds more color.
• chives – adds even more flavor and makes a great garnish.
• seasonings – I used a mixture of oregano, salt and black pepper. You could also add in some crushed red pepper flakes for a little spice!

How to Make Asparagus Crustless Quiche

1. Trim the asparagus. Snap off the ends of the asparagus spears and cut into 1-inch pieces and chop your green onions. No need to cook the asparagus beforehand as long as you use thin asparagus spears!
2. Prep the egg mixture. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, half and half, oregano, salt and pepper.
3. Assemble the quiche. Arrange the asparagus spears and green onions in the bottom of a 9-inch pie plate sprayed with nonstick spray. Pour the egg mixture over top of the asparagus and top with feta cheese and chives.
4. Bake the quiche. Bake the quiche in the oven at 350 degrees F for 35 minutes, or until the egg is set in the center and the edges are golden. A knife or toothpick inserted should come out clean. Serve warm and enjoy!

Variations

• Add more veggies – feel free to mix things up and add whatever veggies you’d like! Some great options include sliced mushrooms, bell peppers, onions, tomatoes, broccoli, shredded zucchini and more. Similar to my veggie frittata recipe.
• Leafy greens – this quiche is a great recipe to sneak in some extra greens! Spinach, kale and arugula are all great options or even some fresh herbs.
• Add in a protein – you could also add in some meat such as cooked breakfast sausage, ham or even bacon in this quiche, similar to my sausage and veggie egg casserole.
• Make into muffins – this recipe also makes delicious egg muffins! Simply pour the egg mixture into muffin cups and bake for 20 to 25 minutes. Check out my cheesy egg muffins for more details!
• Make this dairy-free – to make this quiche dairy-free, simply use vegan cheese (or leave the cheese out altogether) and make sure to use your favorite non-dairy milk.

Prepping and Storage

To Store: This crustless asparagus quiche recipe will last up to 3 days store in a sealed, airtight container in the fridge. Reheat leftovers in the oven at 350 or in the microwave for a few seconds.

To Freeze: This crustless quiche freezes really well too. To freeze, wrap the quiche tightly in plastic wrap and freeze in a sealed, airtight container for up to 3 months. Let thaw out in the refrigerator overnight before re-heating.

These EASY Carrot Cake Oatmeal Breakfast Bars make a quick on-the-go breakfast, snack or healthy dessert made with zero refined sugar and drizzled with a delicious maple cream cheese frosting! 

You are going to love these cozy and delicious carrot cake oatmeal breakfast bars! I originally shared this recipe back in 2017, but over the years I’ve had a few complaints that the bars were too crumbly and fell apart. SO I have tested and re-tested this recipe a few times, made some tweaks and I’m LOVING how they turned out! Cake-like with great texture while still holding their shape. The maple cream cheese drizzle on top is literal icing on the cake!

Why You’ll Love this Recipe

• Super easy to make all in one bowl!
• These bars are made healthier with whole grain oats, almond milk and zero butter or refined sugar.
• Enjoy these bars as a grab-and-go breakfast, as a midday snack or even a healthy dessert.
• Perfect for Easter brunch and packed with a whole cup of grated carrots!

Ingredients You’ll Need

• rolled oats – we are using a mixture of gluten-free oats along with some oat flour to get that delicious cake-like texture. See instructions below on how to make your own oat flour right at home!
• baking powder – acts as a leavening agent to help the bars rise.
• carrots – you’ll need one heaping cup of shredded carrots, about 2 medium carrots.
• egg – adds protein and gives these bars their fluffy texture and height.
• coconut oil – for additional moisture and fluffiness!  Feel free to substitute with another type of oil if you prefer or even butter.
• milk – I used unsweetened almond milk in these carrot cake bars, but any type of milk will work.
• maple syrup – naturally sweetens these bars without using any refined sugar, you could also use honey or other natural sweetener.
• vanilla extract – extra boost of flavor.
• spices – a combination of cinnamon, nutmeg and salt

How to Make Carrot Cake Oatmeal Bars

1. Mix ingredients.  In a large bowl, whisk together the oat flour, rolled oats, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt.  In a separate bowl, whisk together egg, milk, maple syrup, coconut oil and vanilla and whisk until well-combined.  Pour the wet ingredients in with the dry ingredients, add in the shredded carrots, and mix until just combined.
2. Bake the bars.  Pour the carrot cake batter into a prepared 8×8-inch baking pan and bake in the oven at 350 degrees F for 25 to 30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.  Let the bars sit for 5 minutes then remove from pan and let cool completely on a wire rack.
3. Make cream cheese frosting.  While the bars are cooling, add cream cheese, maple syrup, milk and vanilla extract to the bowl of a stand mixer (or you can use an electric mixer) and whip on high until smooth. Feel free to add in more milk one teaspoon at a time until you have your desired creaminess. 
4. Prepare bars. Drizzle the cream cheese frosting over the bars once they have cooled and cut into 16 pieces. Enjoy!

How to Make Your Own Oat Flour

To make your own oat flour, you simply take old fashioned rolled oats (or instant oats) and blend them in your food processor or blender for about 60 seconds until they resemble a fine, powdery flour – and that’s it!  You can of course just buy your own oat flour at the store, but this method saves you money and the flour will last up to three months in your pantry.  The ratio for oat flour is one cup of oats = one cup of oat flour so it’s pretty easy to measure out.

Prepping and Storage

To Store: You can keep these carrot cake oatmeal bars stored in a sealed, airtight container for up to 5 days in the fridge. I like to store them in a single layer to prevent the cream cheese from

To Freeze: These bars freeze really well too!  I recommend freezing the bars individually and just pulling them out to thaw as needed.  When ready to eat, just pop them in the microwave for 3o to 40 seconds or simply thaw out at room temperature.  These will keep in the freezer for up to 3 months!

These Healthier Deviled Eggs are a classic recipe that are much lighter in calories thanks to using Greek yogurt!  Perfect for parties, Sunday brunch or even a delicious afternoon snack!  

Easy and flavorful classic deviled eggs made healthier with protein-packed Greek yogurt that are easily thrown together with just a few simple ingredients!  Greek yogurt makes such a great substitute for mayo in these deviled eggs as they both have a similiar creamy texture, yet Greek yogurt is only a fraction of the calories found in mayo!  When mixed together with other ingredients like egg yolks, mustard, Worcestershire sauce and pickle relish, the filling is so delicious you’d never know you swapped out mayo for yogurt!

Why You’ll Love These

• We’re swapping mayo for some protein-packed Greek yogurt!
• These deviled eggs are gluten-free, low-carb/keto and make a delicious, high-protein snack that tastes delicious.
• These eggs are a staple at parties, cookouts and especially Easter because they are always a crowd favorite.
• Garnish these with smoked paprika and some fresh chives and you’ve got a gorgeous presentation to boot!

Ingredients You’ll Need

• Eggs – you’ll need 6 large eggs and you can either hard boil them right in the Instant Pot (my favorite method!) or hard boil them on the stove top (see below for those instructions)
• Greek yogurt – I used full-fat plain Greek yogurt in place of mayo, but feel free to use regular mayonnaise or even sour cream if you prefer however this will change the calorie amount
• Dijon mustard – adds some tangyness and that classic deviled egg flavor, but you could also use stone ground mustard, yellow mustard or even a 1/2 tsp of dried mustard
• Worcestershire sauce – I love the boost of flavor this gives, you could also use hot sauce for some heat!
• Relish – my Grandma ALWAYS added relish to her deviled eggs so this was a must in mine and adds a nice zip of flavor!  You could also use chopped pickles in place of the relish
• Spices – combination of salt, pepper and smoked paprika for garnish
• Chives – this is an optional garnish, but makes an attractive presentation!  You could also garnish wtih green onions, parsley, fresh dill or even some bacon.

How to Easily Hard Boil Eggs

I love how quick and easy deviled eggs are to make, it just depends what method you choose to hard boil them!  I have a super simple method of hard boiling eggs right in the Instant Pot that you can check out here which makes them super easy to peel.  I personally find the Instant Pot to be the easiest method, but here’s instructions on how to hard boil eggs right on your stove top!

1. Boil the eggs.  In a large saucepan, place the eggs and cover them with an inch of cold water (about 2 cups).  Bring the water to a boil and continue to boil for about 30 seconds.  Then shut the heat off, cover the eggs and let them sit (covered) for about 12 minutes.
2. Make an ice bath.  While the eggs are sitting, create an ice bath by filling a large bowl with water and ice.  Using a slotted spoon, transfer the eggs to the ice bath to stop the cooking process and let them cool completely, about 10 minutes.  This step is important so don’t skip!
3. Peel the eggs.  Gently tap the eggs all over to crack and remove the shells.  You now have hard boiled eggs for your recipe!

How to Make Healthy Deviled Eggs

Once you have peeled your hard boiled eggs, it’s time to make the filling!  Slice the eggs in half lengthwise and remove the yolks, placing them in a small bowl.  Next add Greek yogurt, dijon mustard, worcestershire sauce, relish, salt and pepper and mix really well until all combined.  Taste the filling and season with additional salt and pepper, if needed.

Then you can either just spoon the filling into the center of each egg white, or you can transfer the deviled egg filling to a piping bag with a fitted tip (or use a small plastic bag with the corner snipped) and pipe the filling onto the center of each egg white half.  Garnish with a sprinkle of smoked paprika and some fresh chives!

Prepping and Storing

The great thing about this healthy deviled egg recipe is you can easily make them in advance which is great for parties or if you’re planning to serve them as an appetizer for Easter!

To Make Ahead – If making ahead, mix together the egg yolk mixture and store that separately from the egg white halves, keeping each in sealed, airtight containers in the fridge.  You can do this up to 2 to 3 days ahead of time.  When ready to serve, simply spoon or pipe the yolk filling onto the eggs and garnish as desired.

To Store – Leftover deviled eggs will last about 3 to 4 days in a sealed, airtight container in the fridge.
