‘The difference between a tart, a pie and a quiche are a blur’ – Yotam Ottolenghi
This crustless quiche or zucchini bake is a great batch recipe and can be eaten for breakfast, lunch or dinner. The veggies used can be changed for variety and it can be cut up and placed in lunch boxes for a kids and adults alike. It’s not too dissimilar to Mr B’s Italian frittata, just a little GF four added and less eggs.
Perfectly simple and simply perfect.
