Broccoli Quiche Cups with Bacon and Pepperjack Cheese
Take the mundane out of your usual breakfast meal and serve a crustless mini quiche.  Swap half-and-half for whipped cream and save 60 calories and 6 grams of saturated fat per serving. Be creative with veggie choices. Recipe adapted from Taste of Home publication. The recipe makes 8 quiches using a standard size muffin tin. 
Ingredients:
  • 1 cup finely chopped broccoli florets
  • 1 cup shredded pepper jack cheese
  • 6 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 3/4 cup heavy cream or half and half
  • 1/3 cup bacon bits ( 4 slices of bacon)  
  • 1/4 teaspoon dry mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley flakes or dried Italian seasoning 
  • 1 shallot, minced
  • Salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Grease muffin tin well so quiche removal is easier. 
  • Divide broccoli, cheese and cooked bacon among the muffin cup wells.  
  • Pulse liquid ingredients once in a blender and divide the liquid among the cups. 
  • Bake at 350 degrees until set, 15-20 minutes.
