Easy crust-free mini quiche

These crust-free mini quiches are a healthy (and gluten free!) portable breakfast item. I'm all about the make-ahead breakfast these days, and I've found that these mini quiches refrigerate (or even freeze) well. A few minutes in the toaster oven, and they are good to go. I usually pair them with my banana oat mini scones to get a complete breakfast on the go. This recipe is versatile enough to be used with any cooked vegetable. 


Ingredients
3 cups cooked broccolli 
1 tbsp masala (or really any seasoning you prefer)
1 tsp dried chives
1/2 cup low fat shredded cheese
3 cups of egg whites (or eggs or egg substitute)
Salt to taste

1) preheat oven to 350F
2) lightly grease a 12 compartment muffin tray
3) mix together broccolli, chives, masala and salt
4) divide broccolli mixture equally into all the muffin cups
5) add a little shredded cheese to each compartment 
6) pour the egg white into each of the compartments
7) bake at 350 for 20-25 mins until a toothpick inserted in the center of a quiche comes out clean.
8) serve immediately or let cool on a wire rack completely before storing.
