This vegetable crustless quiche is so creamy and tasty. It makes a considerable amount of veggies flavourful and enjoyable to eat. In this recipe I made sure to use some fresh broad beans as it will soon be at the end of season. You can swap out Swiss chard for spinach or kale. It can be done dairy free if opting out the feta and the vegetarian cheddar.
Tip: The top part of leeks and the Swiss chard’s stalk can be saved for stock.
