A light and healthy quiche made with egg whites, leeks, and cauliflower
Position a baking sheet on the lower rack of the oven and preheat to 400°. Using a fork, prick the inside of the pie shell all over. Place on the baking sheet and bake for 5 minutes. Then remove from the oven and arrange half of the cheese in the crust and bake until melted, about 3 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a large, heavy skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the onion and leeks, season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring, for 3 minutes. Add the cauliflower and chicken broth and cook, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes; let cool slightly.
In a large bowl, beat the egg whites and eggs and season with ½ teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Stir in the remaining cheese and the cauliflower mixture. Transfer to the prepared pie shell and bake until the filling is set, about 20 minutes. Let cool slightly before serving.

Looks yummy! I’m looking for some healthy one dish meals for my husband and myself as well as my toddler. I think we will all like this!
