Time 1h40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 cups shredded carrots
¼ cup canola oil
¼ cup diced onion
1 teaspoon salt substitute (such as No Salt®)
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
¼ cup cold water
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 small heads broccoli, shredded
3 eggs
½ cup pesto sauce
1 teaspoon salt substitute (such as No Salt®)
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese, or to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
  • Blend carrots, canola oil, onion, 1 teaspoon salt substitute, and pepper together in a blender until smooth. Whisk water and cornstarch together in a bowl until cornstarch is dissolved; add to carrot mixture and blend until smooth. Pour carrot mixture into a 1 1/2-quart casserole dish and press into a 'crust' shape.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until crust is dry and firm, about 20 minutes.
  • Whisk broccoli, eggs, pesto, and 1 teaspoon salt substitute together in a bowl until smooth; pour over the carrot crust.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until set in the middle, 40 to 45 minutes. Cool quiche for 25 minutes and top with Parmesan cheese.

This quiche was a bit too eggy for my taste. I think I would have preferred a crust made with flour.

I found the quiche to be a bit bland. I think it could have used more seasoning.
