Mini Bacon Broccoli Quiches

This recipe comes from the October 2013 issue of Family Circle magazine. The photo make the little quiches look too yummy not to try. The only thing I did different was substitute regular bacon for turkey bacon. I know. Turkey bacon is healthier but I just don't like the taste.

Mini Bacon-Broccoli Quiches

3 cups broccoli florets
4 oz. (6 strips) bacon
9 eggs
3 egg whites
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup cheddar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add broccoli. Cook 3 minutes; drain. Roughly chop and cool slightly. Set aside.

Meanwhile, heat a skillet over medium heat. Cook bacon until slightly crispy, 8 to 10 minutes. Dice and set aside to cool.

Whisk eggs, egg whites and milk. Stir in cheese, salt, pepper, broccoli and bacon.

Coat a 12-cup nonstick muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray. Ladle mixture among cups. Bake at 375 degrees for 20 to 25 minutes, until cooked through.

Cool slightly. Remove quiches with a small offset spatula. Cool completely and refrigerate.

To serve: Wrap in a paper towel and microwave for 30 to 45 seconds, until warm.

Makes 12 quiches.
