Found this in a cookbook called "Favorite Brand Name Diabetic Recipes". I used whole wheat low carb tortilla's to make them more diabetic friendly. This can be easily altered to include different seasonings and vegetables according to taste. I may add cheese next time.

Time 40m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups vegetables, diced
2 tablespoons green onions, chopped (optional)
2 tablespoons butter
3 (8 inch) flour tortillas, each cut into 8 triangles
1 cup Egg Beaters egg substitute
1 cup skim milk
1/2 teaspoon dried basil leaves

Steps:

  • Saute vegetables (I used red & green bell peppers and zucchini,) green onions and 2 tablespoons of butter until tender.
  • Grease 6 (6-ounce)custard cups.
  • Arrange 4 tortilla pieces into the custard cups placing the points at the center of the bottom of each cup and pressing them down to form the shape of the cup.
  • Divide the sauteed vegetables evenly between the custard cups.
  • Combine Egg Beaters, milk and basil (I used fresh basil) and pour evenly into the cups.
  • Place the cups onto a baking sheet and bake at 375 degrees for 20 to 25 minutes, until egg mixture if firm and toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  • Let it sit 5 minutes before serving.

Tips:

  • Use fresh vegetables: Fresh vegetables will give your quiche a more vibrant flavor and color.
  • Don't overcook the vegetables: Overcooked vegetables will be mushy and not as flavorful.
  • Use a good quality cheese: The cheese is one of the most important ingredients in a quiche, so use a cheese that you love the taste of.
  • Don't overbeat the eggs: Overbeaten eggs will make the quiche tough.
  • Bake the quiche until it is set: The quiche is done baking when the center is set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Conclusion:

Mini vegetable quiches are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for a party or a potluck, and they can be made ahead of time. With a few simple tips, you can make mini vegetable quiches that are sure to impress your friends and family.
