Yes, yes, breakfast is the most important meal of the day. You’ve heard it before, and will surely again! But how do you make good, healthy breakfast choices consistently when it’s hard enough to get out the door every morning, let alone make something nutritious?! Here’s an answer.
These simple, tasty mini egg quiches are a fabulous grab-and-go breakfast. You can make six servings on Sunday using a 12-cup muffin tin, wrap them up in pairs, and then enjoy your prepared breakfast all week long by popping them in the microwave for 30 seconds (or so) before you leave. Vary the taste by trying different vegetable and meat filling, so you don’t get tired of eating them repetitively. It’s a great way to set yourself up for a productive day! And when you need a quick meal, you can also crumble a quiche over greens for a fast salad.
