BROCCOLI BACON MINI-QUICHES image

These are some yummy little quiches that I cooked up one morning when I was craving something low-carb, and different, for breakfast. I used my recipe for Muffin Tin Bacon & Mushroom Quiches as a base, and changed it up a bit. They turned out great!

Categories     Eggs

Number Of Ingredients 8

6 large eggs
1/3 cup(s) cream
1/8 teaspoon(s) black truffle salt or plain salt
1 pinch(es) ground white pepper
1/2 tablespoon(s) chives
1/4 cup(s) finely chopped broccoli florets (no stems)
1/8 - 1/4 cup(s) real hickory smoked bacon bits
3 ounce(s) baby swiss cheese, shredded or small chop (or monterey jack or cheddar)

Steps:

  • 1. Gather and prep ingredients.
  • 2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Use cooking oil spray to lightly grease a twelve portion, nonstick muffin tin; set aside.
  • 3. In a medium bowl, or 4 cup measuring cup (recommended for ease of pouring,) beat eggs with fork or whisk; add cream, beating well; add salt, pepper, chives and chopped broccoli; mix well.
  • 4. Pour a scant amount of the egg mixture into each muffin round in prepared tin (approximately 1/4 inch deep), stirring mixture between pouring to assure even distribution of veggies in mixture.
  • 5. Evenly sprinkle bacon bits and cheese into each.
  • 6. Evenly fill each with remaining egg mixture.
  • 7. Bake at 350`F for 18-20 minutes. Serve hot or warm. Cover and refrigerate leftovers (I like to place leftovers in a zipper bag in the refrigerator, then reheat one or two in the microwave for 20-25 seconds.)
  • 8. *Note: Quiches will rise during baking, then deflate somewhat when cooling.
