Sounds great will surely try this!
Hi! I made this with sliced tomatoes and spinach and feta. Is this ok?
Hi, Michele. Yes, of course 🙂
I really agree that there needs to be a way to create our own cookbooks using the recipes we love most by tagging them etc. This would be fantastic!
Hi, Chelbelle, and welcome! Salmon is a welcome addition. Each ounce cooked is equal to an ounce of cheese. If this is all you will have at a meal, you don’t have to substitute anything.
Hello – I just joined and was wondering if poached pacific salmon can be added to the quiche recipes? Or do I have to take something away to balance the meal?
Hi, Verlanne. Absolutely! Just note that if you are on a very low-sodium diet (kidney or heart problems), each ounce of feta has about 100 mg more sodium.
Can I use feta instead of goat cheese
Hi, BubblesVie. Good eye! There was indeed a mix-up between photos, but as you can see, we switched them back to the right places. Thanks!!
Is there no dough underneath the quiche filling? (Cherry Tomato Quiche with Goat Cheese) The image sure looks as if there were one, but it is not mentioned in the recipe at all…
Hi, FleurD. Absolutely!
Can this be eaten cold say for breakfast the following day?
Hi, Laura. The tech development team is working on that feature as we write! In the meantime, I suggest you save the link to your browser’s “Favorites”.
I have a binder that I print out the recipes I like and place them in the binder. Then you don’t even have to look for them on the internet everytime you want to use them. I print my weekly menus and put them in the binder too and date them so I know when I used them.
Is there anyway of saving recipes to create a favourites list please?
Hi, Michele. Yes, you can for the most part. Cottage cheese doesn’t always freeze so well, but the other recipes are great for this.
Can you freeze this or other egg dishes?
Hi, Celeste. Absolutely!
Could I use sheep’s cheese instead of goat cheese?
19Mark59. Blending tomatoes as a base is an excellent idea! I have done this myself, and it is wonderful.
Hi, Dianne Walsh. 2-3 slices can be considered a meal, but extra vegetables are ALWAYS welcome 🙂
Is this considered a meal or can u have salad or veggies etc with this?
Ps,I think a tomato sauce makes a real good pizza,so couldn’t the cherry tomatoes be blended to use as a base sauce instead as a topping?
Life time pizza lover in mode rations,would using a meat such as ham plus pineapple and mushroom be ok?
Hi, desai968. Two options:
1. Substitute the eggs and milk with 1 cup of chickpea flour and 2-1/2 cups of water
2. Substitute them with 2 cups of tofu, well-pureed in a food processor (you can add any dairy or vegetal milk to make it smooth, if you are using firm tofu)
i do not eat eggs what can i substitute to make the base
I used egg whites only, used sodium free salt alternative ( No Salt) and added fresh spinach leaves. It was delicious but certainly did not serve six.
Made this, was lovely, might use Basil instead of Dill next time though 😀
Hi, Joanna242. Are you referring to a specific recipe, or in general?
Why does flour have to be added when milk is replaced by rice milk?
This sounds delicious, I will try this one, I think I will use oregano.
Hi, Kathy1019. Any seasoning that your family would enjoy would be fine. Generally the Italian seasonings (oregano, basil, parsley) are popular for goat cheese and tomato.
What’s a good spice that you recommend to replace the dill. Not big fans of it in my house ? Thanks !
Hi, PamCan. Hazelnut is a bit sweet for this, but unflavored almond or rice milk is fine – just be sure to add 1/4 cup of flour with it.
Hi, LornaCox. Just pick a similar recipe in the Menu Planner as a place-saver (i.e., Sweet Potato Kale Fritatta, found under Protein – Miscellaneous), then swap this recipe in when it comes time to prepare the meal.
Hi, rmlarrabee. We are currently working on providing nutritional information. In the meantime, I can tell you that all our recipes, if prepared as posted without add “salt to taste,” meet the criteria of a low-sodium food – less than 140 mg sodium per serving, some much less. This one, for example, yields 82 mg per serving.
Hi, trishlong. Of course – any cheese will do here.
Can I use another cheese, besides goat’s?
I made this and it was delicious! My husband enjoyed it too and he is a picky eater.
hi..i would like to know if these questions will get answered?
sounds interesting, can’t wait to try.
I need sodium info for recipes due to high blood pressure.
If I want to use recipes such as this, how do I transmit them to the menu as it does not recognise it as a recipe. Thanks. Lorna
looking forward to eating this x
Looking forward to making it and eating it!
sounds delicious can’t wait to try! might use basil instead of dill!
would hazelnut milk or almond milk be suitable to supplement the milk?
I COULD use carb info as well as sugar content for all the meals I pick. Diabetic
Is there a way to get carb counts on the meals?. I am a diabetic and like to watch those.
