Default Quiche Cups

Quiche Cups

These are great because you can make up 12 and they will last you all week. Newer post-ops will only be able to eat one and older post-ops like me can eat two for breakfast. I make them up on Sunday and put them in a container in the fridge and take two each day. I remove from the foil cup and heat for 30 seconds in the microwave. Yummy. You can customize them to your liking. Any veggies you like and/or meat. You can even delete the meat if you like. I use eat beaters because it is lower in fat and calories and easier than eggs, but you can use real eggs if you prefer.

Ingredients

1.5 cups egg substitute
1 cup grated lowfat cheddar cheese
1 cup chopped spinach
1/3 cup chopped onion
¼ cup chopped bell pepper
¼ cup diced green chili (canned)
½ cup crumbled/chopped turkey sausage
salt & pepper to taste
hot sauce to taste (optional)

Microwave spinach until warm, drain and squeeze out liquid, set aside. Brown sausage, onions, bell pepper, and chili in a skillet. In bowl, combine egg sub., cheese, spinach, and skillet mixture. Add salt, pepper and hot sauce to taste. Place foil cups in muffin pan, spray with Pam. Spoon mixture into cups filling 2/3 full. Bake in preheated 350 degree oven for 20 minutes or until knife comes out clean.

Makes 12 servings (one cup per serving)

Mary,
Since I had the day off today, I thought I'd call myself Betty Crocker and cook all day! When I read your quiche recipe, I thought, what a great thing to take to work and have for breakfast!

The aroma of all of the foods and flavors cooking together made three of my kids make their way to the kitchen to see what mom was cooking. The smells were heavenly. Your recipe made exactly 12 cups.

I have to tell you that they are delicious! The kids enjoyed them as well. Now I have something new to pack in my lunch for work.

Thank you for this wonderful recipe!
