Seafood Quiche Low Carb

By á-90

The cheese in the recipe acts as a crust! Low fat cheeses don't melt as well but you may try substituting 1 cup of cheese with a lower fat cheese. Other vegetables may be substituted for the spinach...try asparagus!

Ingredients

• 1 TB olive oil
• 2 cups fresh baby spinach leaves, chopped
• 1/2 sweet onion, chopped
