Description

These mini quiche are amazing sandwiched in between a whole wheat English muffin. I bring them to school and heat them up for breakfast all the time!

Ingredients

  • 8 ounces, weight Turkey Smoked Sausage, Diced
  • ½ whole Red Bell Pepper, Diced
  • ¼ cups Scallions, Sliced
  • ¼ cups Swiss Cheese, Shredded
  • 1 teaspoon Pepper
  • 5 whole Eggs
  • 3 whole Eggs, Whites Only
  • 1 cup Milk (I Use Skim)

Preparation

1. Position rack in center of oven; preheat to 325°F. Coat a nonstick muffin tin generously with cooking spray.

2. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Spray with non-stick spray and add turkey sausage, cooking until browned around the edges, 4-6 minutes.
Transfer to a bowl to cool.

Spray the pan again with cooking spray and add the red peppers and cook until softened, 3-5 minutes. Transfer red pepper to the bowl with the sausage.

Let cool for 5 minutes. Stir in scallions, cheese, and pepper.

3. Whisk eggs, egg whites and milk in a medium bowl.

Divide the egg mixture evenly among the prepared muffin cups.

Sprinkle a heaping tablespoon of the sausage mixture into each cup.

4. Bake until the tops are just beginning to brown, 25 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes.

Place a rack on top of the pan, flip it over and turn the quiche out onto the rack. Turn upright and let cool completely.

Makes 1 dozen mini quiche

These were so easy to make – I think the most time consuming thing was chopping up the smoked sausage. I served them for Easter brunch and while it says cool completely I think next time I’d serve them warm.

Those look real good.

And what Courtney asked…can you freeze them?

could these be frozen or refrigerated and reheated for mornings on the run?
