Crustless Quiche

YAY, we finally sold our car this past weekend leaving us with one car for a few days. My husband was planning on taking the bus for ten days as the holidays are rapidly approaching. This plan would leave us without a second car for a solid month which would work great considering he has plenty of holiday vacation not needing to drive to and from work. This grandiose plan lasted us a solid two days; one of which was on the weekend. I must say it was pretty humorous to see how quickly our “month” plan turned upside down as soon as reality hit. Come Monday morning, we were in a pinch again as we both had things to do while on the weekend we tote around together making life a little more simplistic. His coworker was nice enough to come and pick him up for work as we were hoping to purchase the car before the days end. With this in mind, I wanted to provide breakfast for their bellies as he was doing a nice gesture to pick up my husband.

Most mornings I make scrambled eggs for the little man and send my husband to work with either homemade granola or every now and again make him breakfast burritos. I would transition the granola with coconut milk or greek yogurt. He has been getting pretty tired of it lately as there aren’t many other breakfast options I send him with other than breakfast cookies. He is naturally not a big cereal or sandwich guy but does enjoy my granola at least. I on the other hand could eat cereal three meals a day; I LOVE it. So, I decided to treat him to a crustless quiche due to the adversity of his palate not enjoying a simple breakfast; he looks for the hearty eggs and bacon meals. :) If you want an easy quick breakfast that looks and taste as if you slaved over it all morning….here’s the key to your success; crustless quiche. :)

Listen carefully……I made this quiche the previous night and baked it in the morning. It was fresh and hot from the oven yet the work was accomplished before bed leaving me with an easy morning breakfast. :) I sent them off to work with quiche and my delicious croissants filling their hungry bellies.

Ingredients:

  • 8-10 eggs
  • ¾ cup milk
  • Minced onions
  • Sliced or diced ham
  • Chopped broccoli
  • Sliced mushrooms
  • Shredded cheese
  • Dash of garlic salt
  • Dash of sea salt
  • Dash of black pepper
  • Chopped, fresh parsley

Okay, now these ingredients are what was in the fridge at the time. The great thing with this type of dish, you can add anything you want.

Other ideas: peppers, tomatoes, sausage and/or bacon, and diced potatoes.

Preheat oven to 375 degrees and bake 30 minutes or until the middle is firm and doesn’t wiggle.
