(Not My Recipe!)

I love quiche, it is the thing I miss most on a diet so here is my low sin or even sin free recipe (sins for anyone on the slimming world plan)

It contains cheese so if you have your cheese as a healthy a choice on a red day it is completely sin free.

Pre heat oven to gas mark 6.

Serves 4

6 eggs
1 medium onion
6 medium sized mushrooms
1 can corned beef
28g cheddar or 42 grams half fat cheddar.
1 tomato
Water

Beat the eggs in a large mixing bowl or jug.

Finely dice the mushrooms and onion and mix into egg.

Remove fat from corned beef (not always needed but sometimes you get a lot around the outside of it.
Mash corned beef and mix into egg mixture.

Grate the cheese and add this to the other ingredients.

If it is too stiff add a little water, it should be a thick consistancy but pourable.

Pour mixture into an over proof dish.

Thinly slice tomato and arrange on top of mixture, if you want to use a little more cheese sprinkle on top.

Bake in oven gas mark 6 for around 45 minutes test to see if it is set by stabbing it with a thin bladed knife or skewer, it should come out wet but with no sloppy egg looking goo on it. Also the mixture should not wobble too much as you move the dish.

When it is at this stage turn up the heat to full for 10 minutes this will give you a skin around the bottom which will be your "pastry". This is not compulsory but I like it this way.

Remove it from the oven and leave to stand for a few minutes before serving. This allows the "quiche" to lift away from the sides of the dish slightly making it easier to serve.

I served this with New potatoes and a salad.

Hope someone enjoys this.

Yummie Ice.....sounds lovely cant wait to try it

Hi Angel, bolognese with quorn can be just as nice you just have to try different variations of herbs and spices and you can make your own sauce with chopped tomatoes or passata and loads of onions yummm, or buy low syn sauces, i used to make it all the time on SW it's what kpt me going.

Hiya Angel I did have a nice day thank you

When I did sw I used to do a chilli corne carne with quorn I used to put quorn mince peppers tinned tomatoes mushrooms red kidney beans and jar low chilli sauce and then used to have it with rice or jacket potatoes

For picky bits on a SW red day I make chicken tikka bites.

Just get some cubed chicken breast and add a squeeze of lemon juice. The buy some ready mixed tikka spices (in a big tub from Asda) and mix a couple of tablespoons with about 100g of free yogurt. When marinaded just cook on a baking tray in the oven.

I make some onion & coriander salad by finely chopping an onion, finely chopped cucumber and red pepper for colour, then add a load of fresh chopped coriander.

I also make some yogurty minty dip by getting vlf yogurt and mixing a couple of spoonfulls of mint sauce in.

I assemble it like this.

Get a load of gem lettuce leaves and put a couple of spoons of onion salad in each leaf. Add a couple of chicken tikka pieces, then drizzle with the yogurty minty dip.

Absolutely gorgeous!

Mmm that quiche sounds gorgeous, i'm going to give that a try tomorrow on my red day!

hiya. i think you mentioned the cottage cheese quiche? do you have the recipe? thanks

Hiya,
I think the cottage cheese is as above but subsitute the cheese for a carton of low fat cottage cheese. I used to blend mine to make it smooth. All down to taste though
