RECIPE: Breakfast Quiches to Go

RECIPE: Breakfast Quiches to Go 
Originally uploaded by Pillsbury.com

The hubby has been feeling very stressed at work and been working some really long hours. One of his favorite things to eat for breakfast is quiche and although I don't make it very often, I usually make the full size pie. While reading through pillsbury recipes I ran across this recipe that  they describe as hand held crescent cups. I think this recipe would be perfect for a light breakfast at 1:00am in the morning. I think he could use a warm comforting meal right now so I think I'm going to try these little personalized quiches.

INGREDIENTS

• 2 cans (8 oz each) Pillsbury® refrigerated garlic butter crescent dinner rolls (8 rolls each)
• 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
• 3 Eggland's Best eggs
• 1 small onion, chopped (1/4 cup)
• 1 box (9 oz) Green Giant® frozen chopped spinach, thawed, squeezed to drain
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/8 teaspoon pepper
• 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (4 oz)

DIRECTIONS

1.Heat oven to 350°F. Spray 16 (2 3/4x1 1/4-inch) muffin cups with CRISCO® Original No-Stick Cooking Spray.

2.Separate each can of crescent dough into 8 triangles. Press 1 triangle on bottom and up side of each muffin cup.

3.In large bowl, beat cream cheese with electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in onion, spinach, salt and pepper until well mixed. Fold in cheese. Fill each cup to the top with egg mixture (do not overfill).

4.Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until knife inserted in center comes out clean and edges of rolls are golden brown. Remove from pan. Serve warm.

High Altitude (3500-6500 ft): Bake 18 to 23 minutes.
