Great Salad

This salad tastes great when it is eaten right after it is prepared. The combo of fresh fruits and spinach makes it taste so yummy!
-
Excellent!
Nicole McAfee from
Frisco, TX
This salad was the favorite part of my meal! That raspberry vinegar makes the salad. I used canned mandarin oranges instead of the oranges called for and added other types of lettuce (romaine) with the spinach. I'll make this again for company.

Top of the Stove Mac & Cheese
Ginger Marszalek from

My laziness finally paid off! I usually cook with whole milk and didn't have any and didn't feel like going out to the store to get some. Then I remembered I had some carnation evap milk and found this website and wow! I made this for lunch and it was sooooo good!! Rich and creamy and delicious! And, very easy to prepare. I will definately make this again. I think even my grandson will perfer it over that boxed "orange" kind! Thank you Carnation!! I will be buying lots more evap milk!

Add Chicken broth to spice up the flavor
Debby Krebs from

This is a fast and tasty recipe. I also have found that by adding small amounts of chicken broth to this recipe it enhances the flavor. The amount you add will depend upon the amount you are making.

These bite-size, crustless colorful mini quiches are filled with cheddar cheese, broccoli and red peppers. A delicious and colorful addition to any meal and also perfect as a party appetizer.
Ingredients:
1 can (12 fl. oz.) NESTLÉ® CARNATION® Evaporated Milk
3 large eggs, beaten
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 cups (8 oz. pkg.) shredded mild or sharp cheddar cheese
2 cups chopped, frozen broccoli, thawed and drained
1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper
Directions:
PREHEAT oven to 350° F. Grease and lightly flour twelve 2 1/2-inch muffin cups.
WHISK evaporated milk, eggs, flour, salt and black pepper in medium bowl until blended. Stir in cheese, broccoli and bell pepper. Spoon 1/4 to 1/3 cup of mixture into each prepared muffin cup, filling almost to rim*. Stir mixture frequently to evenly distribute ingredients.
BAKE for 23 to 28 minutes or until knife inserted near centers comes out clean and tops are lightly browned. Cool in pans for 15 minutes. Run knife or small, flat spatula around inside edges of muffin cups. Carefully remove quiches.
*NOTE: Number of quiches that you get will depend on the size of your muffin cups. Bake time may need some adjusting.
TIPS:
• Quiches can be made ahead and frozen. To reheat, place on baking sheet and bake in preheated 325° F. oven for 25 to 30 minutes or, place 2 to 4 quiches on microwave-safe plate and microwave on MEDIUM-HIGH (70%) power for 2 1/2 to 5 minutes or until hot.

great make-ahead snack or appetizer
laurel keser from
new port richey, FL
Made these with some variations. Everyone loved them. I gave them an Italian twist by adding Italian seasoning, substituting mozzarella cheese and also used fresh broccoli instead of frozen.They are great as a snack or appetizer. I also like that they can be made ahead.
-
good easy recipe
ELIZABETH FREY from
Lake Village, IN
I really liked this recipe but I had to substitute red pepper for green because I have intolerance to them. I also chopped up some crisp bacon to add. The best part of this recipe is that if everyone cannot sit down to breakfast at the same time the individual quiches make it easy for people to reheat and eat theirs when convenient.

Mini Quiche
gabriela villalobos from
It was a fast & easy recipe to prepare. However, I think it needed more flavor. So, to add some more flavor and spice to it I added more salt, cheese & pepper to it.

Party-Perfect Mini Quiches

I made these for Christmas Morning and they were a big hit. Like the idea that i could make them ahead of time and than just heat them up they also are very easy to make and will make again.

Loved by all
Laura Jansma from
Warsaw, IN
I usually make regular size quiche or a big pan of breakfast casserole. These were delicious and easy. I have already been asked to share the recipe with three friends. I made an extra batch, froze them. Often I pull out a few to microwave for quick breakfasts.

Healthy and Good
Jennifer Van Keppel from
Indianapolis, IN
These are great! I used the fat free Carnation, frozen broccoli and red pepper from our garden. On a whim I added a dash of cayenne/black pepper blend. I made a batch for breakfast and a batch of smaller ones for Christmas Eve appetizers. Highly recommended.

Mini Quiche
Tina Yetter from

I made a double batch of this recipe. Kept the leftovers in the fridge. They were great for a quick breakfast during the week when everyone's in such a hurry to get out the door in the morning. Just pop in the microwave and out the door we go. We love them!

Great for WLS Patients
Patt Castro from
Fresno CA
I had weight loss surgery 2 years ago and am always looking for recipes I can use. This is perfect because it is crustless, a good source of protein and I can make it to the ounce size I am able to consume. I will pass this on to my WLS group.

money saver
Tracy Snyder from
Atoka
i always go and buy quiches already made and you only get like 6 - 12 in a box. They are very expensive so I was pleased to find this recipe because it doesn't take long and it's cheaper to make than buying some.
