This recipe is a new family favourite for either breakfast or lunch.
It's super easy and comes together in no time. This is our take, on a healthier version of a quiche, and is loaded with fresh veggies, and a good amount of protein.
We love to include protein into our meals, especially for breakfast after a morning workout, and this recipe is a fantastic natural way of doing so. Apart from 5 eggs, this recipe also includes cottage cheese, which is another good source of protein. We'd much rather prefer natural protein, over consuming protein powder, if we can.
What we love about this recipe is, just how customisable it is. The filling can be adjusted to, mood, season or diet, and personally we love recipes like that.
We used 5 tortillas to make this quiche. However, if you have extra large tortillas you can line your oven dish with just 1. Just be sure that your tortilla creates a decent size edge, otherwise your egg filling will overflow.
We are absolutely loving this recipe, and if you try it, we really hope you love it, too.
Happy Cooking!
