Mini Breakfast Quiches

OK, please tell me that I’m not the only one who struggles with breakfast? And when I say struggle I mean struggle. You see, in an ideal world, I would eat waffles and donuts for breakfast – everyday. I would also be a few inches taller and never suffer from a hangover, and did I mention eat a lot of donuts? Sadly, life doesn’t always go the way we planned. Are you still with me?

I knew for the Secret Recipe Club reveal of August, I wanted to make something to help my daily breakfast struggle. Especially now that school is starting in less than a month (Side note: how. what. why. when. no.) breakfast is pretty important. I’m also a big fan of sleeping, so elaborate breakfasts don’t really fit in to my schedule. I was thrilled when I saw my assigned blog Gluten Free A-Z Blog had a whole page dedicated to breakfast. Hello jackpot! Judee has a ton of great, and healthy recipes on her site and I knew right away that I wanted to make these Mini Breakfast Quiches.

Eggs are a great source of protein which is really important for breakfast. I added a few more vegetables and changed up the ratio of eggs to milk and I love the way these turned out. I can see myself making a batch of these on a Sunday and then enjoying them for breakfast throughout the week.
