- Serving: 3-4 serves
- Syns: syn free (or 12 syns for whole quiche if not using Healthy Extra)
Ingredients:
200g plain fat-free cottage cheese
4 large eggs
1 200g tin of lean ham, thinly sliced
80g mature low-fat light cheddar cheese (2 Healthy Extra A choices or 12 Syns)
1/2 onion, finely diced
200g broccoli stalks, finely chopped
3 tsp tinned sweetcorn
Salt and pepper, to taste
Cooking spray (e.g., Frylight or similar)
Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 180°C (Gas Mark 4 or 170°C Fan Assisted).
Lightly spray an ovenproof dish with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Chop the broccoli into small pieces and spread them evenly in the prepared dish.
Sprinkle the finely diced onion and sliced ham over the broccoli.
Scatter the sweetcorn across the dish. Then, place it in the preheated oven for 3 to 4 minutes to slightly soften the vegetables.
In a blender, combine the fat-free cottage cheese, eggs, and 30g of the grated low-fat cheddar cheese. Season the mixture with salt and pepper. Blend until the mixture is completely smooth.
Remove the dish from the oven and evenly distribute the remaining grated cheese on top.
Pour the smooth cottage cheese and egg mixture over the ingredients in the dish, ensuring that everything is well covered.
Return the dish to the oven and bake for 40 to 45 minutes, checking periodically.
To check for doneness, insert a sharp knife into the quiche; if any liquid comes out, it may need more time in the oven.
Allow the quiche to cool for 10 to 20 minutes before serving and enjoying your delicious, guilt-free Slimming World Crustless Quiche.
