Healthy Breakfast Quiche Recipe!
A quiche is a savory pie made with a flaky crust and a creamy egg-based filling that is typically loaded with healthy vegetables, cheese, and other flavorful ingredients. Eggs are a key ingredient in quiche, providing high-quality protein and essential vitamins and minerals like choline, which is important for brain health and development.
Not only is an egg quiche a delicious and satisfying meal, but it is also a healthy and nutritious choice. By including a variety of colorful vegetables, you can pack in a range of important vitamins and minerals like vitamin C, fiber, and antioxidants. And by choosing a whole-grain crust or crustless option, you can also increase the fiber and nutrient content of your quiche even more.
To make a delicious and healthy egg quiche, start by preheating your oven and preparing your crust. You can use a store-bought crust or make your own using whole-grain flour for added nutrition. Next, prepare your filling by whisking together eggs, milk, cheese, and a variety of vegetables and seasonings of your choice. Pour the filling into the crust, and bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the quiche is set and golden brown. Serve hot, and enjoy a nutritious and flavorful meal that is sure to please the whole family.
