Delicious, nutritious, and will disappear off the plate quicker than you can say Cutie Quiche Cakes three times fast!

Ingredients

  • 3 slices 100% whole wheat bread, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
  • 6 large Eggland's Best eggs, beaten
  • One 10-ounce box frozen cooked winter squash, thawed
  • 1 cup preshredded reduced-fat Cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 tablespoons real bacon bits or 2 slices cooked bacon, crumbled
Ready in 30 minutes, recipe by Meal Makeover Moms http://www.mealmakeovermoms.com

Preparation

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F.  Generously coat a 12-cup muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray.  Divide the bread cubes evenly and place into the muffin cups.  Set aside.
  • Whisk together the eggs, squash, Cheddar cheese, Parmesan cheese, and bacon bits.  Using a 1/4-cup measuring cup, pour the egg mixture into each of the muffin cups.
  • Bake until golden brown, about 22 minutes.  

Variation

For a sweeter alternative, replace the 3 slices of whole wheat bread with 3 slices of whole grain cinnamon raisin swirl bread (we like Pepperidge Farm) and replace the bacon bits with 2 tablespoons of brown sugar.

    Your eggs are wonderful. It would be great if you could use more environmentally friendly packaging. Styrofoam NEVER disintegrates.

    THANK YOU!! I've been using a similar recipe for years. After I promised to make quiche cakes for a church group this weekend I couldn't find my recipe ANYWHERE. I am so thankful for your website. I didn't want to substitute a different egg dish because these are awesome!
