Cheese and Peppers Breakfast Quiche

I created a quick and easy breakfast quiche for my daughter who is tired of eating oatmeal for breakfast every morning prior to school.

This only requires the mixing of eggs and cream and sauteing peppers and onions in a little olive oil. 

I poured everything into store bought frozen deep dish pie shells and baked them for about 40 minutes.

That’s all there is to this dish, and you can use Egg Beaters to make this super healthy!

I sliced the quiche up, and wrapped them in wax paper, now she has breakfast for the rest of the week, they also freeze very well.

Enjoy!
