Steps:
- I like to make sure my pie dough is prepared before I begin mini quiche. Make pie dough the night before because it needs to chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before using.
- In a large bowl with a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment- or simply using a whisk and mixing bowl- beat/whisk the eggs, whole milk, heavy cream, salt, and pepper together (on high speed if using a mixer) until completely combined, about 1 minute. Cover and refrigerate egg filling until step 6.
- Preheat oven to 375°F (191°C). Grease two 24-count mini muffin pans. (Nonstick spray is best.) If you only have 1 mini muffin pan, bake these in batches. Roll out first pie dough, fill, and bake then roll out the 2nd pie dough, fill, and bake.
- Working with 1 chilled pie dough at a time, place the dough onto a floured work surface. Roll into a large 12-inch circle. Use your warm hands to mold any cracking edges back together as you see me doing in the video tutorial above. From the circle, cut rounds using a 2.5 inch cookie cutter. (Sometimes I use my 1/3 cup measuring cup, which is 2.5 inches in diameter.) You'll have to re-roll the dough scraps a few times. Work quickly, as the dough becomes much more delicate the longer it's at room temperature. You'll get about 24 rounds per pie crust. Repeat with 2nd chilled pie dough for a total of about 48.
- Place the dough rounds into greased 24-count mini muffin pan(s). Press the dough flat into the bottom of the crevice and up the sides.
- Evenly pour cold egg filling into each unbaked crust. Top evenly with add-ins, then sprinkle each with cheese.
- Bake mini quiches until the center is just about set and edges are lightly browned, about 25-28 minutes. Allow to cool for 5 minutes before removing from the pan. If greased well, the mini quiches pop right out using a spoon to scoop them up. Serve warm or at room temperature
- Mini quiches make great leftovers! Cover tightly and store in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
MINI QUICHE
Recipe video above. Each filling below makes 24 mini quiches, so USE ONE FILLING. If you want to make more than 1, scale the filling recipe DOWN (use the slider below). A quick blind bake will ensure the pastry doesn't go soggy and it cooks through in the short time it takes for the filling to bake!

MINI QUICHE WITH ROMAINE LETTUCE SALAD
Ready, Set, Cook! Special Edition Contest Entry - These mini quiches look like you slaved all day to make them, but they are easy enough because they take advantage of Simply Potatoes Shredded Hash Browns for the base and a bottled salad dressing (I recommend Cardini's). There is also a red "brava" dressing based on that used for a Spanish dish, Patas Bravas.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees F; grease 6 muffin tins with butter (if you prefer to cut the recipe down to serve 2 or 4 simply put a bit of water in the unused muffin tins).
- Lightly press 1/4 cup (not packed) of the hash browns into each cup; season with salt and taco seasoning.
- Place in oven for about 10 minutes (potatoes may start to brown a bit on the edges).
- Meanwhile, whisk together the eggs, onions, peppers, and bacon; season with additional salt and taco seasoning.
- Divide spinach among cups; top with egg mixture; spoon a tablespoon of milk in each cup.
- Place in oven for about 20-25 minutes; you will know they are done when the center is set and they are puffy (they will deflate when they start to cool).
- While the quiches are cooking, in a small bowl, whisk together 2 tablespoons olive oil, the vinegar, paprika, and chili powder.
- To serve: Divide lettuce among serving dishes. Place a mini quiche on each plate, then drizzle lettuce with a fair amount of bottled Caesar dressing, just a little for the quiche. Drizzle with the red "brava" dressing.

SIMPLE ROMAINE SALAD
This is a take on a very simple and delicious salad I had at a Greek restaurant in NYC. It's so easy and the end result is super satisfying. Of course you can add your favorite herbs and toppings. But we find the lightly dressed salad is amazing and a great accompaniment to meat. Sprinkle with the salt right before serving; that pop of flavor and crunch is so good. Finishing salt is a must for this salad.
