Easy quiche with a tortilla as the crust.
Ingredients
- 1 burrito sized tortilla
- 2 large eggs
- ½ cup egg whites
- ½ cup low fat cottage cheese
- ¼ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp garlic powder
- ⅛ tsp cayenne pepper
- ⅛ tsp black pepper, to taste
- 2 chicken sausages
- 1 cup veggies
- ¼ cup shredded cheese
Method
- Preheat to 350°F.
- Gently press your tortilla into an 8-inch pie pan until it takes the shape of the pan.
- Slice chicken sausage. In an oiled and preheated a skillet, sear until browned on both sides.
- Chop and sauté (if necessary) any veggies.
- In a small blender, add eggs, egg whites, cottage cheese, and spices. Blend until smooth, about 10-15 seconds. If you don't have a blender, simply whisk well.
- Pour the cottage cheese mixture into the tortilla.
- Add your sausage, vegetables and cheese on top of the egg mixture.
- Bake in the oven for 25-35 minutes or until eggs are set and tortilla is lightly golden.
- Allow the quiche to cool for 5 minutes before removing from the pan. Slice and enjoy immediately!
