This Sweet Potato Cabbage Caramelized Onion Quiche is quite a mouthful (to say)! It is also packed with a handful of my favorite ingredients: melted cheese, sweet potatoes, caramelized onions, and cabbage.

It starts with a crust of sliced sweet potatoes.

Then, I sautée cabbage and caramelized onions for the filling. When they are cooked down but still have a crisp crunch to them, I transfer the completed vegetable medley to the crust.

For the wet portion of the filling, I chop up the Jarlsberg cheese. Grating would provide a more even texture to the final quiche, though I prefer the ease and effect of the larger cheese pieces.

I give the homegrown rosemary a rough chop as well.

In a separate bowl, I whisk together eggs, then add the cheese pieces.

For the final step of the wet portion of the filling, I add the rosemary in and give it a stir. Now the wet part of the filling is ready to pour over the cabbage onion medley.

I toss the completely assembled quiche into the preheated oven.

After baking for half an hour, my gluten-free quiche is ready to devour! Hope you enjoy this quiche as much as I do!
