One base recipe, three ways to fill it. That’s the beauty of this crustless seafood quiche.

The custard comes together in a blender: eggs, sour cream, low-fat cottage cheese, Parmesan, and a little flour for structure. Pour it over your choice of seafood, Monterey Jack, and mushrooms, then let the oven do the rest.

Variations

  • Shrimp: Tossed with lemon zest and chopped scallions for a bright, briny bite
  • Crab: Paired with sliced almonds and lemon zest for a nutty, sweet combination
  • Salmon: Canned red salmon with dill weed and sharp cheddar for a richer, smokier quiche

Chef Tips

  • Blend the custard until completely smooth so there are no cottage cheese lumps
  • Drain canned mushrooms and seafood thoroughly to prevent a watery filling
  • Let the quiche rest 5 minutes after baking so it slices neatly instead of oozing
