Step-By-Step Instructions:
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Spray a muffin pan with cooking spray.
Add olive oil and a generous amount of cooking spray to a medium sauté pan. Sauté asparagus, onion and bell pepper for 7-9 minutes or until cooked through. Season with salt (optional) and pepper and set aside to cool slightly.
In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, egg whites and milk.
Evenly distribute the sautéed vegetables among the 12 muffin cups. Cups should be 1/2 to 3/4 full. Gently pour egg mixture over the vegetables in each muffin cup, distributing evenly. Cups should full but not overflowing.
Take one half of a Lite Laughing Cow Cheese Wedge and gently press it down in the middle of each quiche. Repeat for remaining 11 quiches.
For this recipe I used frozen pepper and onion mix and frozen asparagus pieces popped them in the fridge to thaw the night before and gave them a quick chop run through my mini food processor, it really cut down on time!

These were ok. I had to doubke the liquid To fill my muffin tins. They might have been a bit larger than contemplated by recipe. I also had to cook them longer. The chopping of the veggies took time. I added garlic and some herbs to the veggies. I thought it was too much work. I would just as soon have scrambled eggs with some veggies.
