LOW-CARB BACON AND EGG QUICHE

Low-Carb Bacon and Egg Quiche image

I'm trying to go low-carb, and I found this recipe on Recipegal.com. It's so easy to make and tastes great! We use cheddar as nobody likes swiss cheese but me. It originally calls for a quiche pan, but I just used a 9-inch pie pan with great results! I also sprayed it with non-stick canola cooking spray, instead of the butter as the recipe originally called for.

Time 30m

Yield 8 individual quiche, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

Ingredients

8 eggs
3/4 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
1/4 cup parmesan cheese (grated)
1/4 cup cottage cheese
2 ounces baby spinach leaves, roughly chopped (approx. 1 c.)
1/3 cup roasted red pepper, diced (or 1 finely chopped and seeded jalapeno)
1/3 cup ham, finely diced (or cooked and crumbled sausage or bacon)
1/4 cup green onion, sliced
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon hot sauce (optional)
4 ounces ham, deli ham, thinly sliced (approx. 8 slices)

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In a bowl, combine all the ingredients (except ham slices) and stir well.
Lightly grease or spray muffin tin (you will need 8 wells) You can use foil muffin liners, but be sure to spray them with non-stick spray before filling and to remove the liners from the quiche BEFORE reheating them in microwave).
Evenly divide the egg mixture between the 8 muffin wells (about 1/4 cup each), being careful to keep ingredients well dispersed and getting an equal amount of spinach in each well. You want them to be filled right to the top.
Place in the oven and bake for 20 minutes. The tops should be puffed and just barely set on top. Eggs will sink after cooling.
Store them in an airtight container in the fridge or freeze them (remember that when reheating in the microwave to make sure to take off the foil liners!).

Use a variety of vegetables to add flavor and color to your quiche.
Don't overfill the quiche crust, or it will be difficult to cook through.
Bake the quiche until the center is set and a knife inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the quiche cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
Serve the quiche with a side salad or fruit for a complete meal.
