Quiche Stuffed Peppers

Quiche Stuffed Peppers

 

The impetus behind this recipe was two-fold: 1. To have more make-ahead breakfast options and 2. To get more vegetables into my day. These easy quiche-stuffed peppers met both of those requirements and were delicious to boot. My husband is a feta fiend so I went with a basic spinach and feta quiche, but you could change up the add ins to suit your tastes. Think ham & cheese, broccoli and cheddar or even quiche lorraine. It’s all delicious!
