Thanks for joining Sarah and me for the first Meatless Monday link up of 2017. We have so loved seeing all the amazing recipes linked up this past year and can’t wait to see what everyone whips up this year. In my last few winter CSA boxes, I received a lot of celeriac. Previously, I have shredded it into slaw but wanted to do something more hearty for winter. This Sweet Potato, celeriac and spinach quiche is one of those recipes that just kind of came together and turned out delicious.
Using the sweet potato and the celeriac for the quiche crust makes this dish the perfect gluten free breakfast, lunch or dinner. It’s packed with protein and vitamins and super easy to whip up. I tend to make these types of dishes for dinner and then enjoy it for breakfast the next few days.
The key to a delicious crust is baking the sweet potato and celeriac combination at a high heat until it gets crispy. I then remove it from the oven and add the spinach and egg mixture and then return to the oven. This recipe can be made dairy free by using a little bit of almond milk in the egg mixture and leaving out the cheese.

Susie @ SuzLyfe says
Love the new header! It looks awesome! And this sounds super tasty–I haven’t used celeriac in a long time! Adding it to the list!
Deborah Brooks says
I had not either and it was really tasty! Thanks
Rachel says
Celeriac root is the one thing we get from our farm share that completely intimidates me. It’s such a whole thing from the get go. I usually end up giving it away! Lol.
Deborah Brooks says
I was a little scared of it too but really it’s quite easy to use after you peel it and tasty too.
Debbie @ Coach Debbie Runs says
Such a great idea for the crust! I don’t eat gluten gree but I’d try this just because it sounds so delicious! Of course I’d make it a tofu quiche, though. 😊
Deborah Brooks says
Yes and I think that would work quite well!
Julie @ Running in a Skirt says
My favorite local healthy food cafe makes a dish like this! Can’t wait to try yours! Thanks for hosting!
Deborah Brooks says
Thanks hope you like it!
Wendy@Taking the Long Way Home says

I’m so over cooking right now! I made a big vat of soup yesterday I hope to live off all week. 🙂 I will have to pin this for later.

This is the time of year that I really want to cook but I do love making a big vat of soup to use all week as well
Helen says
Hi Deborah! I am sharing from a mobile device so I am unable to link to you from my site right now. But I did put a link in my comments section and tweeted. I will add you to my party age when I get on my computer. I hope you love the Sprouted Wheat Bread recipe I shared.
Deborah Brooks says
Great so glad to have you join us! happy new year
Sarah- A Whisk and Two Wands says
So much flavor! Quiche is something my mom always made growing up. I’ll have to add this to my list to make for brunch up at my parents in a few weeks.
Happy Meatless Monday my friend!
Deborah Brooks says
Thanks hope they like the twist on the crust!
Kimberly Hatting says
I don’t think I’ve heard of celeriac(?). This dish sounds yummy and easy….I might substitute in a bit of cheddar cheese…that’s my go-to cheese of choice LOL
Deborah Brooks says
I have never met a cheddar that I didn’t love! That works too. Celeriac is the root that celery is from. It tastes kind of like celery but with the consistency of a radish
Lacey@fairytalesandfitness says
Love making quiches. They are so easy and you can throw anything you have on hand in them.
Deborah Brooks says
Yes exactly!
Kara @ Byte Sized Nutrition says
I love that you used sweet potato as the crust. Anything with sweet potato is automatically a winner in my book!
Deborah Brooks says
Thanks mine too!
Margo Donohue says
So do you have any kind of coconut or almond flour you like to use for cooking? Asking for a friend!
Deborah Brooks says
I have not explored enough with those flours myself but people really seem to like all of the Bob’s Red Mill GF flours I would check those out

It is a healthier way to enjoy a crust

Sadhna Grover says
I love spinach quiche, but adding sweet potato crust is a great idea to make it crispy and gluten free. Bookmarked it to try soon.
Deborah Brooks says
Thanks so much it’s a great way to mix it up
Chaitali says
Yum, this sounds great! I’ve never even tried celeriac before.
Deborah Brooks says
I was a little intimidated by it but I was determined to use it. It is a cross between a carrot and a radish in consistency but very mild
Christina says
I love that you made the crust out of veggies!!
Deborah Brooks says
It was delicious!
Michelle Rogers says
Looks really good! I wasn’t familiar with celeriac but I should check it out! Happy New Year to you and your family 🙂
Deborah Brooks says
Happy new year to you! Celeriac is a root veggie I would say a cross between a carrot and a radish in texture but tastes like celery
Akaleistar says
I love quiche!
Deborah Brooks says
Thanks so much!
Karen G. says
Yum! I’m not really familiar with celeriac, but the sweet potato crust sounds great, and I do love quiche!
Thanks for sharing!
Deborah Brooks says
Celeriac is a root similar to carrots and radishes but tastes like celery. You can mix it into anything.
Mary Beth Jackson says
I never thought about sweet potato for my quiche- yummy idea!
Deborah Brooks says
Oh it is such a yummy option I hope you try it out
Janelle @ Run With No Regrets says
Okay, I’ve never heard of celeriac…clearly I’m missing out because this looks amazing! I’ll have to pin this for a breakfast idea!
Deborah Brooks says
After just reading your post, I think this is a great option for you all. Let me know if you try it out
vicki says
This looks great!
Deborah Brooks says
Thanks so much!

Deborah Brooks says
I know so good! Thanks for stopping in
