Less than 100 Calorie Quiche Cupckes

Today my family and I went to a local farmers market.  Like many farmer's market it has fresh produce but it also has many local business selling their products.  The products range from home made soap to pasta sauce.  One of the local businesses that was present at the market was featured lo calorie quiches.  Which gave me the inspiration for today's recipe.

Ingredients

3 whole eggs
3 egg whites
2 cups frozen cauliflower
1 cup frozen pees
1/4 chopped onion
1 minced clove of garlic
1/4 cup non fat milk
Salt and pepper to taste
1/3 cup shredded part skim mozzarella cheese

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees and spray a muffin tin with non fat cooking spray. (Mine has 12 muffin holes)
Spray a saute pan with cooking spray and cook the cauliflower and pees, after 7 minutes add the onions and garlic.  Cook until the onions are translucent.  (You could add a pinch of nutmeg here which would be delicious). Remove from heat.  With a potato masher, mash the cauliflower and pee mixture.

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the whole eggs, egg whites, milk, a pinch of salt, and a pinch of pepper until frothy. Stir in the cauliflower and pee mixture and cheese.


Pour the egg mixture into each muffin hole and cook for 20 minutes or until the egg is cooked through and becomes fluffy.

*These are great warm or cold and will keep well in an airtight container in the refrigerator.*

Tip: If you were planning on using these for a quick breakfast or more substantial meal, consider using a 6 cup muffin tin to create larger servings.
