Pre Made Breakfast Quiches (Veg or Meat) Wheat Free, Dairy Free

Recipe #396126 | 45 min | 30 min prep | add private note

By: Chef #396283
Oct 24, 2009

A quick and easy way to take breakfast on the go, after the gym etc. Can make it wheat-free, dairy-free, and can easily be made vegetarian if wanted. Made in muffin tins so they are travel size and easy to re-heat.

SERVES 18 -20 , 18 individual quiches (change servings and units)

Ingredients

  • 2 potatoes, shredded (can use frozen hash browns if wanted)
  • 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 7 slices turkey bacon (may not be wheat free-check labels)
  • 1 liter egg white (can use whole scrambled eggs too)
  • 1 cup chopped zucchini
  • 1 red bell pepper, chopped
  • 1/2 onion, chopped

Directions

  1. 1
    1. chop or shred potatoes. I cook them until they are almost in the vegetable oil, but you can use frozen hash browns (the shredded ones) too and save some time.
  2. 2
    2. cook the turkey bacon (sausage or real bacon will be fine too), cool, then chop.
  3. 3
    3. Chop your veggies (whatever your favorites would be) and sautee lightly.
  4. 4
    4. assemble the mini quiches- spray your muffin tin well. I try to mash the potatoes in the bottom of the muffin tin so the eggs cannot leak through. then put a spoonful of bacon and veggies in each one and fill up with egg liquid.
  5. 5
    5. Bake at 375 for 15-20m until tops of quiches are no longer liquid.
  6. 6
    6. If you like your potatoes crispier, you can bake the potatoes alone for a few minutes before you add everything else.
  7. 7
    7. I bake them in large batches, freeze them, and then re-heat for a breakfast on the go.
  8. 8
    8. if you can handle wheat, then you can also use pre-made pie crust to line the bottom of the muffin tins and then fill with eggs, veggies, and meat.

These were very easy to make. I used bell pepper and green onion for my veggies, and leftover roast duck meat instead of the bacon. I would suggest not using a silicone muffin pan, as you won't get the nice crispy texture to the potatoes Overall, I enjoyed this, and will make them again. Thanks for posting!
