Ashley’s Favorite Batch-Cooking Breakfast Quiches

It takes a bowl, eggs, + a simple combination of tasty ingredients to make a healthy, ready-to-go breakfast for the weekdays. I love making batch breakfasts like quiches or for those low-carb/paleo/keto folks out here, crustless casseroles, with a flavor profile in mind, some veggies, the complete protein of eggs- toss it in the oven and you’re set for breakfasts. My crust? I’ve dabbled in homemaking crust, but in a pinch and during times when I am meal prepping more meals, I buy my favorite @whollywholesome gluten-free pie crusts.

 Smoked Salmon + Egg Quiche

Watermelon Feta Quiche

Simply egg whites, Italian chicken sausage, kale, Parmesan, red pepper flakes, + a yellow onion. Simply pan-grill the onion in a dash of oil- once lightly browned- toss in the kale + cook until lightly wilted. Pour into a large mixing bowl with 16 oz. of liquid egg whites, 1/2 cup parmesan, 1 tsp red pepper flakes, salt + pepper.  Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and in another skillet; cook the chicken sausage- roughly 8 minutes. Add into the large mixing bowl, stir, + pour into a @whollywholesome gluten-free pie crust. Bake for 40-45 minutes or until eggs set.

This @whollywholesome#glutenfree pie crust is the perfect home for my 6 slices of chopped @applegate low-sodium bacon, 1 1/2 cups shredded Brussels sprouts, 1/3 cups Parmesan cheese, sea salt, red pepper flakes, + half of a container of @crystalfarmscheese all whites egg whites – pan-grill the sprouts + bacon until lightly browned. No oil@is needed thanks to the fat from the bacon. Then place the egg whites in a bowl with those and the rest of the ingredients, mix, + pour into the pie crust. Bake at 350 degrees, covered in tin foil, for 40-45 minutes or until eggs set. Let it sit. Cut into 5 pieces. Eat every day next week for a quick breakfast!
