K's Quick Quiche Mini's

This morning for breakfast my wife decided to make scrambled eggs and sausage but while getting the sausage links out of the freezer she came upon a box of filo dough she'd forgotten was in there and was struck with inspiration. Mixing up the eggs with a little milk, shredded cheddar cheese, diced green pepper, minced onion, and some seasonings, she produced a quick quiche mix. Then she used her mini-muffin pan, stuffed a bit of filo dough in each pocket, dropped in a couple small pieces of cooked sausage, and filled it with the egg mix. The mini-quiche were then topped with a bit more shredded cheese and popped into a 350(F) oven for 20 minutes. They were delicious. We had enough left over to have more for breakfast tomorrow. My question is, do you like quiche? If you do, what is your favorite kind? If you don't, why not?

No, since I can't eat eggs that is out of the question.

I can certainly understand why you would avoid quiche.

Some quiche has too much pastry for my taste, so using filo sounds like a great option. Kudos to your wife, I never cook in the morning!

The filo dough was light and flaky, and, best of all, it didn't fill you up at all.

@Hatley I'm not sure, but I would think so. K doesn't add any sugar and I don't think there's much in the dough.

I wish I was one of the instant pantry kind of cooks. She sounds like a keeper.

We've been together 27 years, so I'd say we've decided to keep each other, LOL.

@DWDavis My daughter has begun to cook and bake, I like eating what she makes.. but she's got to be in the right mood. Lately she hasn't had the time.

I wouldn't know how to begin. Fortunately, my wife enjoys cooking and loves making quiche.

They were quite delicious and the leftovers were even better warmed up the next day when they'd seasoned through a bit.

I'm not terribly fond of eggs but that sounds like a great idea putting them in the muffin cups

Each was about two bites, and tasted even better warmed up the next morning for breakfast.

I love quiche but have never used filo pastry before. I tend to use what we call short crust ( probably something different in America). I also now do quiche without any pastry ( trying to lose weight !). Cheese and onion or tuna are favourites of mine.

When K makes a full sized quiche she uses pie crust. Using the filo dough for these was an inspired choice because it was handy.

I really like quiche. I make a crustless one but it is pretty basic with egg, swish or gruyere cheese, bacon and spinach. It is good with a crust but - saving calories!

I enjoy quiche, although I've not made it in several years. I usually make them for supper. I've not made them in a while because I work two jobs currently and will be for maybe seven more years. Because of that I'm usually working during supper meals. If I had more time I'd make seven layer casserole more often. We all like that a lot too. Is filo dough like the preformed pie crusts you can buy in stores?
