Want to up your brunch game? Or, thinking of what to pair with leftover quiche in Monday’s lunch? Serve it up with paleovalley grass-fed beef sticks! paleovalley makes the most delicious beef sticks, with a great snap and only the best ingredients. Many of you have been asking me how I eat their sticks outside of snacking, and this is the BEST way!

paleovalley is truly in a league of their own with their 100% grass-fed and finished fermented beef sticks. Each stick contains one billion probiotic CFUs (because they contain probiotics, it’s best not to heat them) to benefit the health of your gut and the strength of your immune system. Their gut-friendly sticks are gluten-free, soy-free, dairy-free, GMO-free, freaky chemical, additive, dye, and preservative-free, as well as being 100% free from carbs and sugar.

Enough about that, let’s brunch!

If you’re practicing a dairy-free approach to your keto diet, omit the cheese in these low-carb quiche recipes and use your favorite non-dairy milk in its place. I enjoy full-fat unsweetened coconut milk, but almond milk would work, too! Plus, more dairy-free options below.

Lastly, quiche isn’t a super high-fat meal. To boost the fat in any of the following recipes, cook with extra bacon grease, add avocado, or serve with a dollop of mayonnaise.
