Ingredients

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 ½ cups finely diced red-skinned potatoes
1 cup diced red onion
¾ teaspoon salt, divided
8 large eggs
1 cup shredded smoked Cheddar cheese
½ cup low-fat milk
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 ½ cups chopped fresh spinach

Directions

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Coat a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray.
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add potatoes, onion and 1/4 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring, until the potatoes are just cooked through, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool 5 minutes.
Whisk eggs, cheese, milk, pepper and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Stir in spinach and the potato mixture. Divide the quiche mixture among the prepared muffin cups.
Bake until firm to the touch, about 25 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before removing from the tin.

Tips

To make ahead: Individually wrap in plastic and refrigerate for up to 3 days or freeze for up to 1 month. To reheat, remove plastic, wrap in a paper towel and microwave on High for 30 to 60 seconds.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.

* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
