Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 Large eggs
- 0.5 cup Milk
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 Red bell pepper, diced
- 0.5 cup Zucchini, diced
- 1 cup Spinach, chopped
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 12 Phyllo pastry sheets, cut into squares (optional)
- Non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly spray a 12-cup muffin tin with non-stick cooking spray or line with phyllo pastry squares for a crispy base.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined. Set aside.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the diced red bell pepper and zucchini, cooking for 4-5 minutes until softened. Stir in the chopped spinach and cook for an additional 2 minutes until wilted.
Distribute the cooked vegetables evenly among the prepared muffin tin cups.
Sprinkle a layer of shredded cheddar cheese over the vegetables in each cup.
Pour the egg mixture evenly into each muffin cup until just below the rim.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes or until the quiches are puffed and set in the middle.
Let the quiches cool in the pan for 5 minutes before running a knife around the edges to release them, if needed.
Serve warm or at room temperature. These can also be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
