Here is a good idea for a quick nutritious breakfast (and sometimes dinner!) recipe. I just made my portions up but the main idea is individual breakfast casseroles. Cubed bread Eggs Milk Veggies that you need to clear out of the fridge (or frozen) cheese (optional) Spray down muffin pan. Mix eggs and milk (combination you like for scrambled eggs or quiche - more than you think) in separate bowl. I use an old-fashioned egg beater for this. Just make sure that the mixture is well mixed. Place cubed bread in muffin pans. I put a little more than a single layer. Place your veggies on top. This could be frozen peas and carrots, mixed veggies, spinach, broccoli - whatever. Just remember that it has to cook to your liking in about 20 minutes in the oven. Spoon over egg mixture until level with top of muffin tin. If you plan on putting cheese in the mixture, then back off the egg mixture a bit and sprinkle this on top. Place in 375 oven until done. Start checking around 15-18 minutes. When you shake the pan and nothing jiggles, then it's done. My family eats these up! They are quick, easy, freeze well and self contained. They are great for using up small amounts of leftover veggies too. P.S. The more milk you put in the egg mixture the more they will pop up. If you like spicy, try peppers or hot sauce in a couple.
