Super Fast Pan Quiche

Eggs- sistuhs, you know I love 'um. I just got back from my whirlwind tour of an Egg Farm in Oregon. I'm thinking of buying an egg farm now. Not really, but ya never know. I'm going to post all about it on my daughter's blog (since the egg tour was not part of blogher paid advertising). It was a clucking good time, so head over and read about it. But then come back, and check out this super fast recipe for Pan Quiche. This was the brain child of celeb chef Jeff Saad. He wanted a quiche that was healthier and faster than a traditional French egg pie. I watched him make his Pan Quiche on a morning show in Oregon and I knew I had to come home and try it. I think I might have licked the TV screen. Here's the skinny: you toast some breadcrumbs in a skillet to form a "crust," and then cover it with eggs and add-ins of your choice. This one has spinach and cheddar, but the possibilities are as endless as my to-do list. Off I go-but don't forget to check out my egg farm tour here.

Money Saving Tips:

Did you know that eggs cost about 12 cents each? Pick up a dozen for dinner-you just saved yourself a bundle.
Super fast Pan Quiche for one

Estimated Cost: $1.00

1 teaspoon butter or olive oil

1/3 cup bread crumbs (I used panko)

1 egg

1 tablespoon milk or cream

pinch of salt and pepper

2 tablespoons cheese

handful of spinach leaves

Heat a six inch skillet over medium heat. Add butter and crumbs and cook until just toasted. Flatten crumbs down to form crust. Sprinkle with cheese and spinach. Beat egg with milk and salt and pepper. Pour over crumbs. Reduce heat to low and cover pan with lid. Cook until eggs are set, about three minutes.
