Yummy Quiches and Breakfast Casseroles

LOW-FAT CRUSTLESS SPINACH QUICHE-I like this without the tomato, but it's up to you. I bring this to my MOPS-type group so that I have something light and very yummy to eat instead of nibbling on pastries and fattening quiches.
10 oz. frozen spinach, thawed and drained
1 large tomato, sliced (optional)
1 ½ C. low-fat cottage cheese
1 C. grated reduced-fat sharp cheddar cheese
1 whole egg
4 egg whites
1 T. canola oil
1 tsp. garlic salt
1/8 tsp. ground pepper
Press all the water out of the thawed spinach. Combine cottage cheese, cheddar cheese, spinach, eggs, oil, salt and pepper. Pour half of the mixture into a lightly greased 9-inch pie plate. If desired, arrange tomato slices over spinach and cover with remaining spinach mixture. Bake in a preheated 350-degree oven for 40 minutes or until a knife comes out clean
About 1000 calories for the entire quiche

LOW-FAT CRUSTLESS POTATO QUICHE-get the hash browns that are 1 point per serving. They're basically just shredded frozen potatoes. Also get the extra lean bacon. I made this for Nurture (my MOPS-type group), and my table LOVED it.
1 whole egg plus 8 egg whites, beaten
3 C. frozen hash browns
4 oz. reduced-fat cheddar cheese
½ C. low-fat cottage cheese
1 green onion
¼ tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. pepper
6 slices crispy lean turkey bacon, crumbled
Paprika
Heat oven to 350. Grease a 9-inch pie pan. In large bowl, combine all ingredients except paprika and bacon; mix well. Pour mixture into greased pan. Sprinkle with paprika. Bake at 350 for 30-40 minutes, or until set. Sprinkle with bacon; bake 5 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.

CROCK POT BREAKFAST- I got this recipe from a Weight Watchers message board. Sounds like good comfort food!
1 (28 oz.) Bag Ore-Ida Frozen Potatoes O'Brien, thawed slightly
1/2 Cup Diced Onion
1 Pound Lean Ham, diced
2 Cups Fat Free Shredded Cheddar Cheese
1 Cup Skim Milk
3 Cups Egg Substitute
1/2 teaspoon Salt

This page talks about several effective ways through which you can get
rid of skin tags. The good news is that normally they are
benign tumors that won't affect your health. Females and males have the same chance of developing them.
