Ingredients

  • 6 eggs
  • 1 cup Greek yogurt sour cream or blended cottage cheese work too.
  • 1 cup shredded cheese Any cheese and I actually shred it myself to save a little extra money.
  • 4 cups veggies Any veggies you want
  • 1 pound meat Sausage, bacon, ground beef, turkey... whatever you are going for. If you want to omit the meat then sub extra veggies. 8oz of mushrooms and a couple of bell peppers or whatever you would like.
  • dash salt and pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350℉

  2. Cook any meat that might need cooked (see meat notes)

  3. Sauté any veggies that might need softened (see veggie notes)

  4. Crack eggs and mix until a little fluffy

  5. Add in yogurt, cheese, and salt and pepper... mix

  6. Fold in the veggies and meat, stir together

  7. Prep pie dish with a little butter to help against sticking, if using pie dish. If doing muffin sized, use parchment muffin liners in muffin tins. Fill about 3/4 the way full.

  8. Bake pie dish quiche for about 45 minutes or until the center is solid, not jiggly. Bake the muffin sized for about 30-35 minutes. Bake the mini muffins for about 20 minutes.

  9. Allow to cool for a little and then either serve or freeze.

Recipe Notes

Meat Note: Ground beef and sausage doesn't need to smaller as it is ground, however, turkey, ham, and bacon need to be cut in some fashion. 

  • Turkey can be cut or shredded
  • Ham can be cubed and pork can be shredded
  • Bacon can be diced, though I put it into the food processor and make it like bacon bits... after it has cooled a bit.

Veggie Note: Not all veggies need sauteed. The ones I usually do are as following...

  • onions
  • spinach - fresh needs wilted and frozen or canned needs water cooked off
  • bell peppers

Simply sauté in a little butter. Others, like mushrooms, I might throw in to sauté but they are perfectly fine being baked with the quiche.

Dice or cut veggies how you like but I usually run my onions through the food processor, so they are smaller.
