I Iike to say egg pie...
Something that is really easy to make is quiche....and I don't want to hear any of that real men don't eat quiche crap....
Buy a couple of deep dish frozen pie crusts.
preheat oven to 350
Bake your frozen pie crusts for 15 min and remove to cool
1 onion
1 bunch fresh spinach
1 pound of cheddar or monterrey jack 1/2 lb of each
1 pint of half n half or heavy cream
6 large eggs
salt and pepper
thor·ough·ly wash and dry the spinach and peel the onion chop both very fine (and I mean frigging fine!) preferably in a food processor.
Grate your cheese
In a large bowl with a pour spout or large measuring cup beat all six eggs.
Beat them like crazy. Beat them until you violate their civil rights.
Add 1tsp of salt and 1/4 tsp of black pepper
add 1 and 1/2 cups of the half n half to the egg mixture and whisk thouroughly.
Take your pie crusts and add the spinach onion mixture
Add a large handful of cheese
Carefully pour the egg mixture into the pie crust until it is about 1/2 inch from the top
Bake at 350 for 45 min on the top rack to avoid burning crust
Remove the pies and let them cool for 30 min
These are best eaten at room temp.
Dig in.
You can substitute the spinach and onion with about anything you want as long as the ingredients are not wet and mushy and they taste good with eggs.
Some ideas are mushrooms, asparagus, bacon, extra cheese, broccoli, jalepenos...
You can store these in the fridge. they stay good for a couple of days and taste really good as a cold midnight snack.

I've printed the recipe, will try it sometimes soon. It's incredible that I never tried to make one, I love omelettes and pizza and the quiche sounds like it is a distance relative. I'm not a fan of spinach they are a pain to wash; so I'll try it with leek instead. Cheers!
