Instructions
Prep:
Preheat oven to 350F (180C) and grease a mini muffin pan or a regular muffin pan.
Cook the veggies:
In a medium skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add the zucchini, carrots, and onions, and cook, stirring, for 5-7 minutes until the veggies begin to soften. Remove from heat and set aside to cool down to room temperature.
Combine:
In a large bowl, combine veggies, eggs, grated cheese, and salt. Spoon mixture into mini muffin pan.
Bake:
Bake for 15-18 minutes. If using a regular-sized muffin pan, bake for 26-28 minutes. Allow mini quiches to cool in the pan before carefully removing with a small knife or spatula.
Notes
I used sharp white cheddar to make this recipe nearly lactose free for my youngest. As always, check the labels to make sure the recipe fits your family's dietary needs.
