Mexican Quiche
Eggland's Best eggs are great in quality and price, and they are versatile for making everything from omelets to baked goods. They help place a quick meal on the table. But, my main reason for using Eggland's Best is its superior nutrition. It's hard to make healthy choices with today's hectic lifestyle. So being able to make a nutritious meal hassle free is so important. My recipe is the "Best Family Recipe", because it’s easy, nutritious, cost effective and the family loves it.
