Process
Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
- Preheat Oven to 425.
- Grease your dish with coconut oil. I used a 9x13" pan and it comes out pretty thin (as you as you can see in the pictures) for a thicker version, use a smaller pan.
- Chop the yellow onion and chop or shred the zucchini.
- Spread the zucchini and onions evenly over the bottom of the pan.
- Put in the oven and cook for 10 minutes.
- Once that's done cooking, take it out of the oven and let it cool. Reduce the oven to 350 degrees.
- While your crush is cooling, chop the tomato and spinach.
- Spread spinach and tomatoes over the crust evenly.
- Crack your eggs into a bowl and add the turmeric.
- Whisk eggs (I used a hand blender to get them nice and frothy).
- If your crust is cooled enough (you don't want it to be hot enough to cook the eggs and soon as you pour them in) pour the eggs over everything evenly.
- Place in the oven and cook for 35 minutes.
- Take out of the oven and let cool before cutting.

I tried this recipe using the smaller pan as suggested, for a thicker version.
It turned out great!
I love anything with spinach and this was no exception. I also
love cillantro so I added some which made it perfect.
What a bonus that I could avoid gluten and have delicious quiche!
This is a great dinner meal too.
