Crustless Leek and Swiss/Gruyere Quiche — Unwritten Recipes (4)

I love quiches and frittatas, not only because of how they taste but also because they're generally a snap to prepare, fairly versatile and can usually be made ahead which is perfect for brunch or a light dinner. And that's the case with this leek-y, cheese-y quiche which has the added ease and low carb factor of being crust-free. The hardest part is cleaning the leeks which you can make easier by buying pre-trimmed and cleaned leeks (they sell them at Trader Joe's and are totally worth it!) or by substituting onions or shallots for the leeks. Told you it was versatile!
