When I first got it in my head that I wanted to make a paleo quiche, I was thinking of using a flaky almond meal pizza crust recipe I recently made as the crust for the quiche… but then I thought why go make it all SWYPO when it could be just a delicious & decadent & filling while staying Whole 30 compliant.
So I made a paleo quiche with a sweet potato crust!
Mission accomplished. This beauty is absolutely delicious & satisfying. I made ahead, divided it into 8 slices & arranged those in tupper ware for a weekday grab and go breakfast…. but make no mistake, this quiche would also be a hit on your Sunday brunch spread.
This paleo quiche with a sweet potato crust is packed with kale and boasts plenty of bacon too! I promise it will be a hit!
