Quiche Bagel Boats Stuffing Ideas

You can customize the filling according to your preference.

Meat variations – You can use any of your favorite proteins: chorizo, smoked chicken breast, cooked bacon, ham, smoked salmon, sausage meat, or tuna.

Cheese variations – feta cheese, goat’s cheese, cheddar cheese, swiss cheese, parmesan, or gruyere.

Vegetables – Use your favorite vegetables…it’s a great way to use up leftover vegetables you have in your fridge. Try any of the following: sauteed mushrooms, wilted spinach, steamed broccoli, roasted red peppers, sweetcorn, cubed carrots, caramelized onion, etc. Vegetables that release a lot of moisture (like spinach or mushrooms) must be cooked beforehand and squeezed to remove the moisture.

Alternatively, try one of these delicious combinations:

• Ham, cheese, tomato.
• Smoked chicken and feta.
• Tuna and roasted red pepper.
• Turkey bacon and broccoli.
• Pumpkin and bacon.

Tips For making Breakfast Quiche Stuffed Bagels

Because they’re softer, fresh bagels will work the best for hollowing.

For a smooth filling, use heavy cream instead of milk.

Feel free to add fresh herbs like basil, oregano, cilantro, or parsley.

How To Store Quiche Stuffed Bagels

Leftovers can be stored in the fridge (in an airtight container) for up to 2 days. Reheat in the oven at 350°F/180°C for a few minutes until cooked through.

Instructions

Cut the bagels in half and remove the filling from each half.

Mix bacon, green onion, salt, and pepper in a bowl.

Beat the eggs and add milk, mix well.

Place a bit of the bacon mixture into each bagel.

Add the egg and milk mixture.
