Several years ago I did the South Beach Diet. It’s a healthy diet. And I really lost weight. But I had to commit to the daunting task of eating eggs for breakfast everyday-for two whole weeks!
After several days of eating eggs I was seriously ready to quit. I just couldn’t stomach them any longer. I wouldn’t say that I harbor hatred towards eggs; they are just one of those foods where a little goes a long way with me.
I found myself in desperate need to find a new way to serve up the incredible edible egg.
That’s when I discovered these delicious quiche cups! Not only are they quite tasty, but freeze wonderfully, and are low in calories. It’s so nice to have a healthy breakfast on the go! Just warm them up and top with a little green tobasco sauce!!
Ingredients
- 8 eggs
- 1 frozen package of spinach, cooked and drained
- 1 onion, diced
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1/2 of a green pepper, diced
- splash of milk
- hot sauce-I use 1 teaspoon Tobasco green pepper sauce
- 1 1/2 cup cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a large bowl, whisk the eggs along with a splash of milk.
- Add in the rest of the ingredients and stir until combined.
- Spray muffin tins with cooking spray and pour the egg mixture into the muffin cups. Bake for 20-25 minutes. Until set.
Notes
To freeze: Place quiche cups in a freezer bag. To serve defrost in refrigerator overnight or in microwave.

Okay, I am not a quiche lover, I think the big ones are too much, so I can’t wait to try these out. I will be picking up the ingredients this weekend and making them. They look delicious.
Quick question for you. I just checked out your freezer timeline… Would you say these would keep about 2 months?? Just curious. This will be my first time freezing egg products.
Well, they don’t last very long here, but I would say they would keep in the freezer for about 2 months!! Enjoy
What a great idea! I love quiche but always feel guilty because of the crust. These are perfect, no crust, but you get that wonderful veggie/egg filling. Thanks for sharing!
I feel the same way…Enjoy!
These look great. And I love that you can freeze them. Thanks for sharing!
