Crustless quiche with chicken, Tinned Fish, or Spinach Feta Fillings

The taste buds vary so I had to be creative and made Crustless quiche with chicken as well as tinned fish and other fillings for the family

The taste buds vary so I had to be creative. The hubby loves his tinned fish sandwiches when we are traveling and now on the Low Carb lifestyle, there’s no bread so I decided to make tinned fish quiche for hubby and chicken for my son and threw in a few spinach and feta ones as well.
