Want a really quick & easy, high protein breakfast or snack?
These simple crust-free quiches are easy to bake and serve, or grab on the go. Store them in the refrigerator for a few days, or serve them fresh out of the oven.
Feel free to substitute another source of protein for the turkey bacon. You can use any kind of diced veggies and protein sources, and feel free to add additional spices and herbs.

I make the muffin pan paper inserts using square pieces of parchment paper, or you can use parchment muffin cups.
These also freeze and reheat well. Just seal well before freezing them.
