Week 31: Recipe #1--Spinach, Bacon, & Egg Quiche Cups

My girls LOVE quiches, actually eggs in general, so these were an instant hit.  They both ate their entire "cupcake" and asked for seconds.  I found these on Pinterest.  They are from a site called Sugar-Free Mom (see link below).  My husband and I liked them too, although we topped them off with a little hot sauce for more flavor.  These cupcakes are 3 WW+ points each.  I'll definitely be making these again!  I served these as "Breakfast for Dinner" with hashbrowns and fresh fruit.  Makes 12 cupcakes.
