QUICHE RECIPES

Does anyone have any Quiche Recipes or low calorie breakfast recipes?
 

theworldaccordingtoeggface.blogspot.com

has tons of recipes for mini quiches

I don't do recipes so much as strategies.

Quiche is nothing more than baked custard in the pie shell filled with "stuff"

So, given that you need a pie shell:  you can put in a pie pan or a tart pan.  You can blind bake it, or not.  Then you need the custard.  Proportions vary but 2:1 dairy:egg is typical.  And (finally) you need the "stuff" which could be spinach, cooked potato, ham, cheese, chorizo, beans, anything really.  So, put some "stuff" in the pie shell, pour in the custard mix and bake at 375 until the whole thing giggles like jello.

Quiche Lorraine would be classic:  Swiss Cheese, bacon
Carmelized Onion is plenty awesome
Oh and Spinach and Ricotta cheese for somethng Florentine

You could also forgo the pie shell and use almost all egg, but that would be a Fritatta.

This is a crustless one that I am making tomorrow.  It's delicious
