Crustless Bacon Cheeseburger Quiche Recipe

There’s no pesky crust business to get in the way of all the meaty goodness in this Bacon Cheeseburger Crustless Quiche. Of course you have eggs and gooey cheese, but when you sink your teeth into meaty bits of beefy burger and ketchup (made especially tasty when you use my bold, thick Homemade Ketchup to make this hamburger quiche recipe) and crumbled bacon, it’s has so much more flavor and texture than any quiche you’ve ever experienced before.


When The Hubby and I first started dating, he was on the Atkins Diet. So yeah, man food, that was pretty much it. Beef, bacon, eggs, cheese. Heck, even low carb beer. He stuck with it for awhile, and this sugar- and bread-loving gal was supportive. Sure, our firs date was for ice cream (which later inspired this Salted Ripple Chip No-Churn Ice Cream), but he was trying to “woo” me and he knew of my addiction. Can’t blame a guy for breaking his diet once night all in the name of love. Lucky for him, it worked.

But after that, when we cooked together, it was often Balsamic Marinated Flank Steak and salad or chicken and veggie kabobs on the grill. Except for the time he wanted to make me lasagna, which was good, but even he’ll admit was not the World’s Best Lasagna. Then I wanted to go to Panera and dunk a big hunk of bread in my black bean soup on pretty much a weekly basis. And, you know, it was summer. Ice cream was pretty much a necessity. And wine. There was definitely wine.

Too bad I didn’t discover my wheat allergy until a few years ago. He might have stuck with it a bit longer. Well, except for the ice cream part. And the wine. #badinfluence

Maybe I just needed to learn howe to make more low carb recipe earlier. Like quiche. Quiche? Yes, quiche. Manly, low carb quiche…

Crustless Bacon Cheeseburger Quiche Recipe

How do you make Bacon Cheeseburger Crustless Quiche?

  • Your basic egg mixture is whisked together, with just eggs, milk, salt, pepper, and dry mustard, which is my secret ingredient in any quiche recipe or especially recipes with cheddar cheese where I just want to give that sharp cheese flavor or those eggs some pop.
  • Cook several slices of bacon in a skillet, then set them aside while you saute onion in the remaining bacon grease. Add ground beef and cook through before stirring in some Worcestershire sauce and ketchup.
  • Spread the meat mixture in a glass pie plate, sprinkle with shredded cheese, then pour the egg mixture evenly over everything.
  • Bake and serve with your favorite toppings, like lettuce, tomatoes, and avocado, or even more ketchup, like one of these 4 Variations of Homemade Ketchup.

This quiche was originally part of The Bug’s birthday request for eggs and Waldorf Fruit Salad, but since then I’ve made it a bunch of times and it is always a winner!

  6. I love that he broke his diet for your first date, very cute. This quiche sound amazing. I have been looking for some good crustless quiche reipes as mine never turn out so I think I will try it this week.

  10. This makes me think of the first pizza my dad ever made on his own… double bacon cheeseburger! I added onion and peppers to mine but it was such a fabulous combination. A quiche would be amazing!

    Reply

  12. This is definitely a manly quiche if I ever saw one. I like the story you told about your first date, that’s cute he sacrificed his diet for ice cream and the chance to impress you lol. He’s a keeper!

  13. A man quiche indeed! My hubs is a huge fan of Atkins and is on a modified Atkins now. It really works for him, but it’s like the opposite of how I eat. I too am a #badinfluence. LOL. He would really love this. And so would the kids. I think the next time they come, I’m making this. Such a great idea.

  20. I’m so glad your version of our family favorite cheeseburger frittata has been a hit in your house! I think I am due to put this on our menu again soon!

  21. I loved hearing more about your early courtship days with your hubs, Brianne. Smart man to woo you with ice cream, Atkins diet be damned! You are brilliant for stuffing cheeseburger into quiche – two of my favourite foods! I think I could finish one of these off just my myself. That means I’ll have to make two – one for me and one for my husband. I hope you guys had a great Father’s Day yesterday!

  22. What funny is my husband enjoys quiche with the crust and all. I’m sure he would enjoy this one very much since cheeseburgers are on the top of his favorites list.

  28. This is PERFECT! I am not only gluten-free, but I am also just starting Atkins! 🙂 I’m doing it with my sister for support, not that I can’t stand to lose weight myself…just I’ve never been one to try ‘fad’ diets. Visiting from Show Stopper…mind if I take a look around? Don’t worry, I wiped my feet at the door!! 😉

  31. Looks awesome! I am a big fun of breakfast for dinner on occasion, and this would definitely work. Maybe with some hash browns (not atkins friendly of course, but why not?).

    Reply

  32. Looks great! Doesn’t say when to put the bacon in, but I will try adding it to the meat mixure at the time the ketchup and worcestershire is added.

    Reply

  34. I don’t see where to add the bacon or dry mustard. Am I missing something?

    I just crumbled the bacon and added it as well as the dry mustard when I mixed in the ketchup.

    Reply

  35. I’m a real man who also is a great cook. This was only OK and I won’t make again. My wife agrees. We both think there are far better burger “quiche” options out there.

    Reply

  36. My hubby loved it. I liked it with avocado and tomato. I’m glad I checked it at 25 minutes though, because it was done.
