Cook Time: 30 minutes
Total Time: 40 minutes

Ingredients

  • 3 cups leftover mashed potatoes
  • 5 eggs
  • 1 cup cheddar cheese, grated
  • ½ cup whole milk
  • ½ cup heavy cream
  • ¼ cup chives, chopped
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and grease a muffin pan. Sprinkle 1 tbsp cheddar cheese in each muffin cup and set aside.
  2. In a medium bowl, mash together the leftover potatoes with one egg.
  3. Scoop ¼ cup of the potato mixture into each muffin cup. Use a small ramekin to press the potatoes into the cup, creating an indentation in the potatoes for the quiche filling.
  4. Whisk the remaining cheese, eggs, milk, cream, chives, salt, and pepper. Pour the quiche mixture into the center of each potato-crusted muffin cup.
  5. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the tops are lightly golden and the quiche is set.
  6. Serve warm and enjoy!
