savory mini quiche

I absolutely love breakfast food and I enjoy making big weekday breakfasts for lazy mornings with Olivia before we really start our day. My husband, on the other hand, who leaves for work at 5:30am, rarely eats breakfast. I wanted to find an easy meal for him to grab on his way out the door, that could be reheated in less than a minute, and still be more filling and nutritious than a granola bar or protein shake. This also is a perfect recipe for entertaining since it can be made ahead of time and rewarmed or served at room temperature!

Cue, mini quiche.


These are so easy and delicious and the perfect appetizer for Easter brunch! The best part is that you can customize them with any flavors or ingredients you want. You can add cheese, other herbs, any type of meat, or keep it really classic and simple. The crust is created using puff pastry and the ingredient list is short and sweet. Enjoy!

+ Carefully place each round in a muffin cup, pressing down to mold the sides
+ Pour egg mixture into each muffin cup, being sure not to overfill

I hope you all have a wonderful Easter weekend!!
