Healthy mini quiches with a crust – Slimming friendly

Mini pepper quiches are not a proper quiche without the crust, are they? Whilst I love a crustless quiche and obviously, they are often made low-calorie like my onion quiche it just is not the same. These quiche boats using taco shells are so much better and like a proper quiche with a crust

Budget shopping tips for mini quiches

I try to ensure all of the recipes I make are accessible to everyone. By this, I mean that they do not use obscure hard-to-find ingredients.

I also believe that recipes should use as few ingredients as possible and avoid expensive ingredients. We would all much rather spend money on holidays than on expensive ingredients, wouldn’t we?

Buying herbs and spices in bulk is something I really recommend. It can save a lot of money in the long term but also mean you never run out! I find putting them on Amazon subscribe and save helps too!

Additionally don’t forget to check out the yellow sticker reductions and freeze what you can.

Frozen vegetables are nutritionally just as good as fresh usually so do keep an eye out for those too to save money. Whilst I prefer to use fresh vegetables in this recipe you can use frozen but they will not set as easily.

Do you have any particular frozen vegetables you love? Do share them with me it is always nice to hear people’s recommendations.

Healthy Lunches

If you are eating healthily then you may have difficulty in finding lunches for work. These mini quiches are just one of many amazing lunch ideas I have found so do check out my other recipes for more ideas.

If you take lunch then you are so much less likely to buy food which inevitably will be less healthy. Taking a variety of food throughout the week to work keeps your lunchtimes interesting and stops you from getting bored.

Even if, like me, you work alone at home it can make such a difference having your food already prepared for you. Why not give it a go and make sure you build a variety of lunches into your weekly meal plan.
