This was a pleasant change from the bacon quiche I normally cook. I forgot to buy Colby cheese so I used Cheddar. They were still a hit!

WHAT A GREAT EASY BREAKFAST TREAT! i JUST USED BIGGER MUFFIN TINS AND MADE 6, INCREASED THE CHEESE, SUBSTITUTED RED PEPPER FOR GREEN PEPPER (DO NOT LIKE) AND USED ALITTLE CHIVE CREAM CHEESE TO REGULAR CREAM CHEESE. PERFECT!!!AM GOING TO FREEZE SOME , DEFROST WHEN READY TO SERVE AND JUST REHEAT FOR WHEN MY SON IS VISITING FROM OUT OF TOWN. AM NOT A MORNING PERSON AND THIS IS IDEAL FOR ME! ps I ALSO MADE IT AHEAD OF TIME AND PUT IN REFRIG OVERNITE SO I WAS READY TO GO THE NEXT MORNING!

Yummy. I didn't have any green pepper, and can't wait to explore this recipe more. I also used a bit more cream cheese than the initial recipe, and put a chunk of colby. This will be great to play with for brunch.

Very tasty and good. They all went in one sitting. I ligtened up the whole recipe and got the fat down to 10.8g per tart. I used light cream cheese, 1% milk, 1 whole egg, 3 tbsp. egg whites, 1/4 c. of reduced 2% mexican cheese, red pepper (just what I had) reduced fat crescents and 5 tbsp. of real bacon bits. Couldn't tell they were lower in fat, just delicious.

LOVE IT! This was a simple quiche to make and everyone LOVES IT! I used mini muffin pans and it made about 2 1/2 dozen mini quiche's. I also made it as a sausage quiche. M'm! M'm! Good!

Absolutely love this recipe. Have made it dozens of times over the past 8 years including many Brunches and Easter celebrations. Great to prepare the night before and then just pop in the oven the next morning.
