Ingredients:

  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 cup shredded cheese (Cheddar or Swiss)
  • 1/2 cup cooked bacon or ham, chopped (optional)
  • 1 cup fresh spinach, roughly chopped
  • 1 small bell pepper, diced (any color)
  • 1 small onion, finely diced
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or butter (for sautéing)
  • ~12 pre-made mini phyllo cups or tart shells (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a medium skillet over medium heat, add olive oil or butter. Once hot, add the diced onion and bell pepper. Sauté for about five minutes until they are soft. Add the chopped spinach and cook for an additional minute until wilted. Remove from heat.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together eggs and milk until well combined. Stir in salt and pepper.
  4. Add the sautéed vegetables to the egg mixture along with shredded cheese and cooked bacon or ham if using. Mix well to ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed.
  5. If using pre-made phyllo cups or tart shells, place them on a baking sheet. Carefully pour the egg mixture into each shell until they are about three quarters full.
  6. Bake in the preheated oven for about 15–20 minutes or until quiches are puffed up and golden brown on top. A toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean when theyre done.
  7. Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly before serving warm.
