"I haven't tried this one, but it sounds sooo good! It also sounds like a great low carb breakfast for on the go people."

• Ingredients: 11
• Yields: 12 muffins

• 4 eggs
• 1 cup heavy cream
• 1 cup swiss cheese (or whatever type of cheese you prefer)
• 10 slices cooked bacon, crumbled (or sausage)

• various other seasonings and spices (Garlic is particularly good in this dish.) (optional)

directions

1. Beat eggs.
2. Mix in heavy cream and seasonings.
3. Add cheese and meat.
4. *ForMuffins: It's best to use Texas Sized muffin tins.
5. Grease liberally with cooking spray and fill only 1/2-3/4 full.
6. They will rise quite a bit, but settle as they cool.
7. Bake at 375F degrees; start with 20 minutes though the original poster has had to cook up to 35 minutes.
8. They get darker as they cook.
9. This is NORMAL.
10. *ForQuiche: pour mixture into greased pie plate and bake at 375 degrees for approxamately 20-25 minutes.
11. To check doneness, insert a knife into quiche-it should come out clean.
12. Allow to set for a few minutes before serving.
13. Apparently these freeze great so you can quadruple the recipe.

I use this recipe fairly frequently, very good! I usually use whatever cheese I have (most of the time it's mozzarella) and spinach and omit the other vegetables and meat. I've used sausage and bacon in the past, but prefer it with just vegetables.
