💰Cheaper: milk + cornstarch

bacon

🥗Healthier: turkey bacon

💰Cheaper: smoked sausage

Turkey bacon is lower in fat and calories.

cheddar cheese

🥗Healthier: reduced-fat cheese

💰Cheaper: processed cheese

Reduced-fat cheese lowers calories while processed cheese is often cheaper.

Dice a packet of rindless bacon.

Remove the kernels from two cobs of corn.

Add the bacon to a fry pan and sauté until crispy and golden.

Turn off the heat and add the corn to the bacon; set aside.

Lightly grease a muffin pan with nonstick oil.

Using a 9 cm pastry cutter, cut out circles from the pre-rolled short crust pastry to fit into the muffin pan.

Push the pastry down and to the sides of the muffin tray to form bases.

Add a spoonful of herb and garlic cream cheese into each pastry case.

Add the crispy bacon and corn mixture to each quiche base.

Add grated cheese on top; options include tasty cheese, parmesan, feta, or goat's cheese.

Crack 4 eggs into a jug and lightly whisk them.

Pour a little of the egg mixture into each quiche base.

Bake in the oven at 180°C for about 15 to 20 minutes, or until golden brown and just set.

Let the quiches rest in the tin for 5 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack.
