Coach Lora's Crustless Chive & Bacon Quiche

Coach Lora’s Crustless Chive & Bacon Quiche8-12 fresh eggs (med. Size) - use whites only if you want to reduce the cholesterol & fat¼ cup cut fresh chives (this is easy to grow, I cut it into small pieces using kitchen shears)¼ cup fully cooked bacon pieces (you could use ham too)1 cup cottage cheese1 cup shredded cheddar cheese½ med. size white onion diced2 cloves minced garlic½ cup panko bread crumbs (I like the parmesan herb flavor) - if you are diabetic or trying to reduce your carbs omit thisSea salt & cracked pepper to tasteSaute diced onion in olive oil until clear. In separate bowl combined eggs (I beat them lightly with a fork first) and all other ingredients (reserve some cheddar, and panko for the top). Mix well. Pour into a coated baking dish. Top with cheese. I put the panko on for the last 10-15 minutes only. Bake uncovered on 325 for 40-45 minutes until golden (and it doesn’t jiggle). Garnish and serve with diced fresh tomato. Enjoy.Suggested side: steamed carrots or cabbageNotes: If you like to use other herbs like basil and thyme that is really good too.Happy Cooking,Coach Lora Ericksonwww.BlondeRunner.comDo you want to learn more about health cooking?
