MamaM, just a query with the quiche. As I know, Quiche has a based crust. What did you put on your base? Thanks!! :D
 
Thank you, Mama. Crustless is wonderful... a few less calories for me. Now if I can just get this to work with Egg Beaters. Oh, yum.

Mama, after reading your wonderful recipe posted here, I did a bit of research attempting to locate recipes using egg substitute. I found some wonderful recipes in doing so and wanted to share a couple of them here with yours.

For anyone with questions; hypothetically, I believe the eggs set the pie giving it a consistency the same as egg custard pie making it very sliceable. One could always use a quarter cup of self-rising flour (or Bisquick mix) as used in the crustless "impossible pies" from the 70's if concerned about a crust.
