Clean Eating Breakfast Quiche

For me, breakfast is an easy meal to keep healthy.  I love plain Greek yogurt, veggies and eggs.  I use them to make a breakfast quiche that will fuel your body for hours and keep you feeling full.  The best part about it is, make it on Sunday, and eat it all week long.  Here's what I made.

5 eggs plus three egg whites, whisked
1 red pepper, chopped and sautéed
1/2 onion, chopped and sautéed
1/2 cup frozen spinach, defrosted and drained
1/2 cup broccoli, chopped and sautéed
Any other veggies that you like can be added or substituted:  mushrooms, zucchini, potatoes
1/2 lb ground turkey sausage, crumbled and browned

Crumble the ground turkey sausage in a pan, and brown.  Drain any fat, and set aside.  In another pan, add 1 T. olive oil, and cook onions until translucent, then add remaining veggies and cook until al dente.  Do not over cook veggies.  In a big bowl, add sausage, veggies, and eggs.  Mix well, add seasonings:  salt and pepper to taste, and some chili flakes if you like a little heat.  If you want, add some shredded cheese (your choice) for extra protein.  Pour into a pie pan that has been sprayed with Pam, cook at 350 degrees for 30-40 minutes, or until eggs are set.  This can be served hot, at room temperature or cold.  I like it at room temperature.  It's low in calories, high in protein, and a wedge of this quiche should keep you going all morning.

I like to cut the entire quiche into wedges, wrap them in plastic wrap, and keep them in the refrigerator.  I make them for breakfast, but they are also a great afternoon snack, and so handy, all ready pre cut and ready to eat.  Enjoy.
