Basic Breakfast Quiche (E)

This post might include affiliate links for products that I know and LOVE!

My Basic Breakfast Quiche tastes extremely decadent, but it’s surprisingly light. It even has a crust, which in my opinion, is the best kind of quiche. Don’t let the word quiche fool you! This is an easy breakfast that anyone can throw together. This meal was a huge hit with my husband and kids, who couldn’t believe how cheesy it was! It really doesn’t feel like you’re eating an “E”, but rather a cheesy, fat-filled Crossover!

Trim Healthy Mama girls, this is an “E” breakfast because of the sprouted bread. It isn’t a Crossover because we use egg whites and an extremely light cheese. This adds a lot of creaminess without any of the added fat. Feel free to customize this quiche with “E” friendly ingredients if you have them on hand! Here are a couple of ideas:

• Turkey Bacon
• Lean deli lunch meat
• A few slices of tomato
• Zucchini
• 1% Cottage Cheese
• Nutritional yeast (I love this one from Trim Healthy Mama!)
• Mushrooms
• Green onion
• Spinach
• Salsa

Let me know what other combos you come up with! I have a few more in the works that I hope to share with you all soon!

This recipe makes 1 8×8 inch pan and it serves 4-6. You can prep this the night before and store it in your fridge. I have done this and while the “crust” isn’t as crisp, it is still tasty. I haven’t tried freezing this yet, but from past experience, eggs tend to change texture after frozen and not always for the best. 🙂 Try it at your own discretion!
