Ingredients
  

  • 1 crust from a two pack box pie crust I got mine at Trader Joe's
  • 8 extra large eggs
  • ¼ cup heavy cream
  • ½ cup Shredded Monterey Jack cheese you can use any cheese you like, my kids like Pepper Jack, but just use what your kids will eat
  • 8 slices of bacon cooked and crumbled (you can sub ham, chicken, or whatever you have and like)
  • Add in veggies maybe ½ cup after sauteed, I used asparagus and leeks
  • Salt & Pepper to taste (the bacon makes it salty so be careful)

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375º F.
  • Spray mini muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray, set aside.
  • Use  a round cookie cutter or large biscuit cutter (I used the ring part of a wide mouth jar lid to cut  the pie crust into circles (you may have to roll out dough a second time)
  • Place dough circles into muffin tin holes and pop the pan with crusts in it INTO the freezer for 10 minutes
  • Pull it back out of the freezer and pre-bake in the ALREADY HOT oven for about 10 minutes. ...
  • While it’s baking whisk together eggs and heavy cream until combined very well. (white and yellow are incorporated completely)
  • Season with salt and pepper, just a little bit
  • Add bacon, veggies, cheese
  • After the pie crusts cool off, add egg mixture to the pre baked pie crusts, pop in the oven and bake 10-15 minutes or until the eggs start to turn golden brown around the edges.
  • Remove from pan when cooled to touch.
  • Serve warm or keeps in fridge to be reheated on busy school mornings.
  • Can be stored in fridge 3-4 days or in freezer 2-3 months.
