A Breakfast Treat

Hello! It has been a few weeks since we got together to cook. We had been planning to make a quiche for a for awhile but kept rescheduling. Finally, we had the perfect opportunity -- brunch! It was also perfect because we didn't have to eat the whole thing ourselves like we usually do.

We made a green chili quiche. We found the recipe in a recent issue of the Food Network Magazine. As always, we took our own spin on it and decided to skinny it up a bit. It called for milk and heavy cream which we didn't do want to. Also for our readers doing Weight Watchers out there, one serving of the quiche was 6 points plus. The recipe serves 4.

We used:
4 eggs
1 cup of skim milk
1/2 cup of light cream
2 scallions, chopped
1 can of green chiles
1/2 cup of chopped pepper jack cheese
Handful of spinach
A reduced fat pie crust

We combined the ingredients together and poured them into a pie dish. We baked at 400 for 30 minutes. It was delicious and our friends loved it! We served it with coffee.

Next time we would add more veggies or perhaps bacon or sausage. This dish was excellent as is. We highly recommend it for brunch. It would also go great with mimosas.

Happy Spring!
