Cook Simply for Two
Cooking for two doesn’t have to be a hassle, especially with eggs on hand. These versatile, high-quality proteins are perfect for small households, and you can often find them in convenient 6- or 8-count packs. Eggs can last in your fridge for at least three weeks with minimal quality loss, making them a reliable staple.
Eggs not only keep meal prep easy but also allow you to add variety and nutrition to your diet. The new Dietary Guidelines for Americans recommend including more vegetables in your meals, and eggs can help you achieve that. A great example is the Quiche in Pepper Pots, which pairs egg protein with the vitamins, minerals, and fiber found in veggies.
These individual quiches are both delicious and simple to prepare. Just fill bell peppers with a colorful vegetable blend, pour in an egg-and-milk custard, and bake. If you’re expecting guests, simply adjust the recipe to match the number of servings needed.
For quick, nutritious meals, use extra eggs in a variety of ways. Try tossing slices of hard-cooked eggs with greens for a hearty salad, poaching eggs in your favorite soup, or creating a skillet scramble with reheated pasta and veggies.
Recipe: Quiche in Pepper Pots
Servings: 2
- Ingredients:
- 2 medium green, yellow, or red peppers (about 4 oz. each)
- 1/2 cup frozen vegetable blend, thawed

- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon crushed Italian seasoning
Instructions:
1. Preheat the oven to 325°F.

3. Spoon 1/4 cup of the vegetable blend into each pepper.
4. In a bowl, beat the eggs, milk, and seasonings until well combined. Pour about 1/3 cup of the egg mixture over the vegetables in each pepper.
