Fast and Easy Quiche

This was the product of a bout of creativity! This is delicious, fast, and easy, as the name would suggest. This can be doubled or tripled and then split into little ramekins for individual servings.

• 3 eggs
• 1/4 cup instant grits
• 3 tbsp of half and half
• 1 tsp pepper
• 1 tsp garlic salt
• 1 tsp Italian seasoning
• 1 1/4 cup vegetables of your choice, chopped

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix eggs, half and half, grits and seasoning in a bowl. 

Fold in vegetables and pour the mixture into a small baking dish. 

Put in the oven for 20 to 30 minutes or until the egg is firm and the top is golden-brown. Enjoy!

Mediterranean Chicken Quiche

I got s creative streak in me on Friday and came up with this yummy quiche! I have used many quiche recipes and I decided to combine them all into one awesome one! Try it without the chicken for a vegetarian option.

• 1 cup low fat sour cream
• 1 fat free cottage cheese- Don’t worry if you don’t like cottage cheese! It melts and makes a great, tasty consistency.
• 7 eggs
• 2 tbsp Italian seasoning
• 1tsp salt
• 1 tsp pepper
• 1 cup cooked chicken, chopped (I used the breasts)- The chicken can be cooked any way. This is perfect for leftover rotisserie chicken or grilled chicken.
• ¼ cup feta cheese, chopped
• 2 Roma tomatoes, chopped
• ½ cup scallions
• Optional: 2 cups spinach, chopped- If you add spinach, use 8 eggs instead of 7.

Grease a 9x11 baking dish with non-stick cooking spray. Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees. Mix eggs, sour cream, cottage cheese, and seasonings in a large mixing bowl. Set aside.

 Mix chicken, feta, tomatoes, scallions, (and spinach), and pour into the baking dish. Pour the egg mixture on top and make sure that all of the meat and veggies are covered.

 Place in oven and bake for 1 hour or until light golden brown on top and firm to the touch. It will puff up in the oven. Remove and set out for 10 minutes to set. It will fall slightly in the middle while cooling. Enjoy!
