Perfect for a Low Carb Meal Prep!
Breakfast can be a difficult task. Early mornings mixed with dwindling willpower can leave even the most prepared of us stuck. That’s why so many people choose to meal prep once a week – to make their lives easier! Each Sunday, they prepare a large portion of food to be eaten throughout the week. Some choose to stick to one daily meal, like breakfast or dinner. Some will make all 3 meals in one day and divide it up into 6-7 portions each!
We find it easiest to prep a week’s worth of breakfasts to take the load off of stressful mornings. Enter: the Chicken and Zucchini Breakfast Quiche. It’s incredibly simple to prepare and can feed a crowd. So whether you choose to enjoy this all by yourself, with a partner or serve it for a family brunch – you can count on this breakfast quiche to get you through it all!

A few flavor combinations
Our Chicken and Zucchini Breakfast Quiche is made with ground chicken, but you can choose to use ground beef, turkey or lamb! Throw in some rosemary if you choose lamb and consider some taco seasoning if you choose beef. Try this recipe out and put your own spin on it.

Don’t hesitate to throw in those seasonings into the crust either 🙂

| Servings: slices |
- 2 cups almond flour
- 2 tbsp coconut oil
- 1 pinch sea salt
- 1 large egg
- 6 large eggs
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1-2 medium zucchini (grated)
- 1 tsp fennel seed
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1 lb ground chicken
- Preheat the oven to 350°F. To make the crust of the quiche, pulse together the almond flour and salt in a food processor.
- Next, add the coconut oil and egg into the food processor and pulse until the mixture forms a ball. Press the ball into a lightly greased, 9-inch pie dish and set aside. It is not necessary to pre-bake this crust.
- In a large skillet, cook and lightly brown the ground chicken. Set aside to cool slightly.
- In a large bowl, crack all eggs and whisk until smooth. Add in cream, spices, and mix. Next, add the grated zucchini and cooled chicken. Mix everything until well incorporated.
- Pour completed filling into the prepared pie crust and bake for 30-40 minutes or until center is firm and the crust golden.
- Serve with a dollop of sour cream and enjoy!
