Spinach & Tomato Crustless Quiche image

This recipe is slightly altered from Holly Clegg's "Meals on the Move", so it's meant to be fast and healthy. I only changed the garlic and basil, since I've learned to appreciate fresh ingredients. This is tasty and she says it serves 6. Maybe so, but unless it's an appetizer, I say 4 for a light lunch with some fruit on the side. Looks low carb to me, too.

I had some trouble getting the quiche to set. I think I may have overcooked it.

This quiche was a little bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more salt and pepper next time.
