A quiche for dogs? Why not!
This broccoli quiche for dogs comes without a traditional pastry crust and instead uses a potato base topped with a soft filling made from broccoli and tofu. The result is an easy oven-baked dish that can be prepared in advance and makes a tasty addition to your dog’s regular meals.
What makes this recipe special: With just a few additional ingredients, you can also bake a matching quiche for the human family members at the same time. You can find the combined two- and four-legged version here: A Quiche for Us – A Dog Quiche for Him.
This dog quiche is intended as a fresh addition to your dog’s usual food and is especially practical when the oven is already in use. While the large quiche for the humans is baking, the smaller dog version can simply bake on a second rack.
