Green Palm Inn Crustless Mini Quiches

Diane McCray

Diane McCray, owner-innkeeper of Green Palm Inn in Savannah, whips these up for a quick breakfast or a make-ahead appetizer. Her guests love them whenever.

 Green Palm Inn Crustless Mini Quiches

Serves 6

















2 cups shredded Swiss cheese
1/2 cup half and half
1/2 cup reduced fat mayonnaise
2 eggs
2 TBS. all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp. seasoned salt
1/8 tsp. black pepper
1 cup diced cooked ham, bacon or shrimp
1/4 cup diced button mushrooms
1/4 cup finely chopped sweet onion

Preheat over to 350 degrees. Coat standard muffin pan with cooking spray.

Combine cheese, half and half, mayo, eggs, flour, salt and pepper in a blender. Process until well blended.

Fill each cup with about 1 1/2 TBS ham and 1 tsp. each mushrooms and onions. Pour equal amounts of egg mixture over each. Cups will be about 1/2 full. Bake 22 minutes or until quiches are lightly golden and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.

Diane recommends pairing with chardonnay or pinot noir. I assume that's when serving as an appetizer but it might be why her inn is so popular.
