Crispy Tortilla Quiche | Easy High-Protein Breakfast Idea #recipe #easyrecipe #eggs

Ingredients
1 medium Soft tortilla
4 Eggs
½ cup Cottage Cheese
¼ cup Peppers chopped, any color
2 tablespoons Onions chopped
¼ cup Mushrooms fresh or canned
¼ cup Shredded Mozzarella or cheese of choice
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a small oven-safe pan or skillet. Press the tortilla into the pan to form a base. For an extra crispy bottom, toast the tortilla in the pan for 2–3 minutes before adding the filling.
Add the eggs, cottage cheese, peppers, onions, mushrooms, shredded cheese, salt, and pepper directly into the tortilla shell. Whisk gently in the pan to combine everything together.
Place the pan in the oven and bake for 25 minutes, or until the quiche is set in the center and slightly golden on top.
Slice into wedges and serve warm. Add toppings like avocado slices, hot sauce, or fresh herbs for extra flavor.
Notes
Tortilla Choice: A flour tortilla crisps up well, but if you’re looking for added fiber, use a whole wheat one. For fewer carbs, go with a low-carb or gluten-free option.
Prevent Sogginess: Toasting the tortilla before adding the filling creates a sturdier, crispier base.
Cottage Cheese Texture: Blend cottage cheese if you want a smoother, creamy filling.
Add More Veggies: Spinach, zucchini, or broccoli are excellent add-ins. Roasted vegetables bring even more depth of flavor.
Boost Protein: Add chopped turkey bacon, chicken sausage, or cooked ground turkey for a heartier egg tortilla breakfast bake.
Cheese Swaps: Mozzarella is mild and melty, but cheddar adds sharpness, feta brings tanginess, and Swiss melts with a nutty flavor
