Why it works
- Hashimoto's thyroiditis: Rice flour and rice milk keep the batter gluten-free, with no soy or seaweed.
- Gluten-free: Certified gluten-free rice flour and rice milk make the quiche without wheat, barley or rye.
- Low-histamine: Fresh eggs, zucchini and dill bring flavour without citrus, vinegar, aged cheese or fermented sauces.
- Kid (4–12): Mild zucchini quiche slices keep strong flavours off the children's plates.
- Toddler (1–3): Soft zucchini quiche is served in small, easy-to-hold pieces.
Celiac check: watch for hidden gluten in soy sauce, stock, malt vinegar and seasoning blends, and oats that aren’t certified. Gluten gives food ideas, not medical advice: always check labels for allergens and cross-contact.
