Quiche

What You Will Need: Frozen pie crust, 7 eggs, 2c. half & half, then any toppings you'd like. I chose cooked bacon, cheese, potato, spinach & broccoli. 

These are always nice to make on Sundays by utilizing leftovers in the fridge and its such an easy way to prep your breakfast for the coming week. 

Preheat your oven to 350. 


Place your pie tins on a large baking sheet.
This helps save your oven incase some of the egg mixture bubbles over during the baking process.

Fill the crust with chopped up pieces of your ingredients. 
I have one with bacon, broccoli, cheese & the other is potato, spinach, cheese. 


Whisk together 3 whole eggs & 4 egg yolks. 


Then add the eggs to the 2c. of half & half. Stir

Season with salt & pepper.


This egg mixture should fill up two pie tins, especially if you have them really full of goodies!

Pour the eggs into the pie shells. Use your fingers to move around the filling so the mixture gets evenly distributed. 


Bake in the oven for 40 mins. Rotate the baking sheet at the half way mark (20mins).

After the 40 minutes, turn the oven off & leave the quiche in there to settle completely, about 10-15 more minutes. 


Now you have breakfast ready to go for a crazy work week or a weekend full of activities. 

What I love most about Quiche is how creative you can get with your fillings/flavors. 
Make it your own by adding ingredients like;

Pesto
Ham
Sausage
Peppers
Onions
Quinoa 
Zucchini
Sun dried tomatoes
Steak
Cilantro
Butternut Squash
Kale

You get the idea....

When your ready to serve up a slice, add some fun garnish with things like avocado, hot sauce, sour cream or if your like my 7 year old niece, ketchup. 


Enjoy & Always Cook with Love!
