Syn-free cheeseburger quiche that adheres to Slimming World guidelines involves making some adjustments to a traditional quiche recipe. Here’s a simple recipe for a syn-free Cheeseburger Quiche:
Ingredients:
For the Crust:
- 150g fat-free plain yogurt
- 150g self-raising flour
For the Filling:
- 500g extra lean ground beef
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons tomato puree
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 4 large eggs
- 200g fat-free cottage cheese
- 100g reduced-fat cheddar cheese, grated
- Fresh lettuce and tomatoes for serving (optional)
Instructions:
- Preheat Oven:
- Preheat your oven to 200°C (180°C fan/gas 6).
- Make the Crust:
- Mix the fat-free plain yogurt and self-raising flour in a bowl to form a dough.
- Press the dough into the base of a quiche dish, covering the bottom evenly. Poke the crust with a fork to prevent it from puffing up during baking.
- Bake the Crust:
- Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes or until it becomes golden brown. Remove from the oven and let it cool slightly.
- Prepare the Filling:
- In a non-stick pan, cook the ground beef over medium heat until browned. Drain any excess fat.
- Add chopped onions and minced garlic to the pan. Cook until the onions are softened.
- Stir in Worcestershire sauce, tomato puree, salt, and pepper. Allow the mixture to cool slightly.
- Assemble the Quiche:
- Spread the beef mixture over the baked crust in the quiche dish.
- Make the Egg Mixture:
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and fat-free cottage cheese. Pour this mixture over the beef in the quiche dish.
- Top with Cheese:
- Sprinkle grated reduced-fat cheddar cheese over the top.
- Bake:
- Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes or until the quiche is set and the top is golden brown.
- Serve:
- Allow the quiche to cool slightly before slicing. Optionally, serve with fresh lettuce and tomatoes on the side.
