Kristine's Saturday Morning Breakfast Quiche
Yes, I know, there already a zillion quiche recipes posted, but here's the one I do every Saturday morning. :D
Basic quiche: 2 oz cream cheese 3 eggs 2 Tbsp cream (I use 18%) 2 oz shredded cheese 2 Tbsp parmesan cheese other fillings - Set the cream cheese out on the counter on Friday night. ;) - Preheat oven to 350 F - Combine all ingredients - I use a hand blender - Bake in a non-stick cake pan, 25-35 min, or until golden Okay, here's the nutrition info for the basic quiche, but note that I use light cream cheese and parmesan cheese. :exclm: For one third of the recipe: 231 calories, 17 g fat, 15 g protein, 2.8 g carbs. Now, the fun part. :sunny: Choose a filling: - tomato and green pepper, use pepper jack cheese instead of cheddar - chopped spinach and bacon - mushrooms and sausage <center>:yum: :yum: </center> |
Loved the breakfast quiche!
Hi Kristine!
As a "newbie" I am desperately looking for quick and easy new ideas! Just tried you breakfast quiche and it was great! DH thought so too, and he is hard to please! Thank you! :thup: |
Oh, I am going to try this! Thank you!

Yummy! Sounds good to me!
|
Thanks! My friend told me she was sick of eggs, so I copied this for her. We had discussed quiches and she wanted me to keep a look out for any and all recipes!

what size cake pan
|
I used a pan about 8" square, 2-3" deep.
|
Hi Kevin. :wave: I've used an 8" cake pan, and even a loaf pan. It doesn't matter, as long as you keep an eye on it and take it out when it just starts to turn golden brown. :thup:

Kristine,
I know this thread is old but I have a question. I don't quite understand where the filling comes in. Are you mixing it into the egg mixture or filling the quiche after baking like an omelette? Thanks! |
Hi! Sorry, I didn't notice your question. :blush: I mix the fillings right in with the egg mixture. I'll edit the post to correct that.

I just made this and YUMMMMMMY!!!!! is about all I can say. here is what I added: onion-bell pepper-turkey pepperoni - shallots Seasoning: Lawry's season salt sea salt pepper fresh garlic- 1 lrg clove minced I used 1 c four cheese blend- I sprinkled shallots and bell peppers on the bottom of the pan and covered with extra cheese- not included in the 1 c- My question is what makes the quiche fluff? more eggs or more whipping? |
I'm going to double this and use a 9x13" pan. I have some ground turkey, bell peppers and Mexican blend cheese. Sour cream on top and a salad - dinner!
Cocoa - I'm thinking more whipping would make your quiche fluffier since you are added air to the mix. More eggs would make it more dense. |
I do this with artichoke hearts and crab meat. I'd forgotten how to do a basic quiche so I'm glad you posted this. Thanks!
|
i made another one using ground beef and I added more HEAVY whipping cream and it peaked!! YAY! I think I may add more eggs too- this way i can fill the dish to the top.
Thanks again- this has become a favorite and my 8 yo will even eat it with enjoyment. lol |
Thank you for sharing. It was wonderful.
