Mini Cheese Quiche Recipe

A Yummy Appetizer or Toddler Lunch!

Have you ever noticed how appetizers make a great lunch for toddlers?  I mean a majority of appetizers are just delicious foods made in miniature size…perfect for a miniature human….don’t ya think??

Anyway, I love making these little mini cheese quiches for little man because….well…it’s basically the only way I can get him to eat eggs….and I have to admit…I love grabbing them to eat for lunch too!

To make these a little bit more healthy than a regular quiche that calls for (although scrumptious) a pie crust bottom I make these using wonton wrappers.  Yep, the wonton wrappers add a nice little crunch to the quiches and Little Man will devour them.  These also make a great appetizer for an adult party.  I like to bake up a whole batch and then we eat on them throughout the week– they reheat perfectly when popped in the microwave for 30 seconds….although it’s best to let them cool a little before handing them over to a ravenous toddler!

These are such a cute idea Melissa. I make something similar, but without the wonton wrapper. I bet the wonton would add a nice cruch. I think I'll give that a try.

Yeah I make them without the wonton wrapper too when I'm out but Little Man loves the extra crunch...I think he thinks he's getting junk food. ;)

This looks so delicious but my kids are allergic to eggs, cheese and milk. I 've found cheese and milk substitutes but not eggs. Do you have any ideas? My youngest likes celery and apple butter since he can't have dairy or nuts to dip it in.

Bob's Red Mill makes an egg substitute...but I've never tried it....it's a good brand though.
