[l_knierim]

My family loves this one, I got this off the Atkins board on ivillage.

ing:
1/2 lb ground beef
1/2 cup chopped onion
3 whole eggs
1/2 cup mayo
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 1/2 cups cheddar cheese
salt/pepper to taste
and any other spices you like
I even have adden some spinach

Dir:
brown beef and onion in skillet, Drain any fat or liquid from pan. Whisk together eggs,mayo, cream and spices. Mix cheese into egg mixture,then add to beef and onion. Pour all into a 8" greased pie pan. Bake at 350 for 45 min or till set. Remove and let sit 10min before serving.

This reheats really well.I even like turkey meat in it.

I hope you all enjoy.Lynn ;)

some chopped celery and bacon to make it more of a "Country Quiche"...

It's delicious and re-heats well for breakfast or lunches, too.

I've also made it with less mayo but 4 oz softened cream cheese to give it a little more bulk. Very good.

I never thought of the cream cheese, that would make it less greasy I would think. Sound great. The other sounds good too. Thanks for the info. Lynn :D

:thup: I tried your cheeseburger quiche. I didn't have any cheese so I used 1.5 cups of Tofu instead of the cheese. Every one liked it! :exclm: I looked up the totals on fitday and this is what they are dividing it into 6 servings:

Made this, and it is fantastic.

I added 4 oz cream cheese, and lowered the cream to 1/4 C.

I topped my with a dollop of sour cream.

Yummy - thank you for posting.

I made this yesterday...

I added the 4 oz cream cheese and dropped the mayonnaise to 1/4c and cream to 1/4c and added 4 rashers (slices) bacon, some garlic and it was great! (those figures are for a single batch of this quiche I doubled the mixtures to make a large batch so there are plenty of single portions in the freezer now ready for a quick reheat meal!)

Thanks for posting this recipe, judging by the reactions in the house it will become a firm favourite here!

:D Fiona :D
