My lunch break is rapidly coming to a close, so I've got to make this snappy! I was craving some delicious PROTEIN for lunch, so I made one of my favorite recipes....
Savory Turkey Bacon Egg White Mini Quiches
These gorgeous little suckers are easy to make, too! You could modify this recipe in so many ways to suit your individual preference, but here's how I made them today:
- Beat 1 egg and 3 egg whites
- Mix in: 1/4 cup chopped spinach and 1/4 cup chopped baby bella mushrooms.
- Slice two uncooked pieces of turkey bacon into thin strips and mix into the egg batter.
- Add 1/4 cup shredded cheese (I used colby and mozzarella).
- Add pepper to taste (salt isn't necessary because of the turkey bacon).
- Scoop batter into three greased muffin tins.
- Bake at 350 for 30 minutes, until brown.
- Let cool for 5 minutes and enjoy!
Alongside my savory mini quiches, I enjoyed a crunchy carrot. I bet this lunch has the perfect combo of protein + fat to keep me full for HOURS!
Snack - 10 AM
Around mid-morning, I got really hungry (and fast)! I had a nice mix of cantaloupe and bananas.... mmmm!
See you for dinner!

Such cute little quiches :0)
By the way, I LOVE that leaf-shaped dish - reminds me of my favorite season! :0)
yum. that looks delicious! i've never thought to use muffin tins. great idea, thanks!
Those quiches look amazing! I am basing all my future recipes on your meals!
Those look sooooooo yummy! When I started reading the recipe, I was thinking how I would probably never make them, but SURE, why not read anyway?
I can't believe how easy those are! I think I'm going to make them next week [after grocery day!], but I'm gonna throw in some dill, too... and maybe nix the cheese.
Thanks for posting the recipe! Have you ever tried making them in mini-muffin tins?
rhodeygirl - thank you! the small quiche shape is fun to eat :)
quinn - did you see i tagged you in my last post? i couldnt get your blog to open this am for some reason! and thanks!
jordan: thanks! i am a firm believer in UNCOMPLICATED food! i hate cookbooks with like twenty ingredients per dish... no one has that much stuff on hand anyways! i'm not sure how well it would work in MINI muffin tins... i think you'd have to chop everything up reeeeeeeeeeeally small to make it all fit. but that would be so fun and it would make a really good app for a party! the great thing about this recipe is it can be modified in SO many ways to go with whatever you've got in the fridge! if you try it in the mini tins, please let me know!
Looks great especially on those cute little plates you have!
Those quiche look amazing, I will try this soon!
wow that looks incredible!! i can't believe there's no flour in it, very creative. i will have to try that :) i just read through all your past entries and will definitely be back! i'm looking forward to making your two bean kale dip soon as well :)
Caitlin - I did see that and thanks! Rose actually tagged me last night, and I filled out all my quirks, but I am having severe issues with Blogger. You can access my blog if you go back through archives, but not the main page. I've reported it, but there's no one directly at blogger you can talk to. I'm hoping it figures itself out in the next few days, but if you can link back through my archives that should work.
Loooooooooooooove all of your dishes!!! And the quiches look awesome too. I did some like that with smoked salmon - drool.
Hey! I would love that!!

I am so excited to have a running "emailer"...
I use muffin tins to make Stuffin' Muffins. I learned it from Rachel Ray.
How do you get those cute daisy bullets?
kath - ooo i've made your salmon muffins with cottage cheese and they are SOOOO good!
hangry pants - i am not an HTML genius, this is a template... so i don't know how i get the cute daisies :)
annie p - i based this recipe on a mini quiche dish from an old vegetarian cookbook.... i remember the first time i made them i was about 11... they are so freakishly easy to make!
Those quiches look/sound incredible... I must get on that pronto, thanks for the recipe!
