Veggie Egg Bake - A Holiday Solution

It's holiday time when the house is filled with loved ones whom you want to keep happy and fed.  We don't like grouchies at the holidays, or any time for that matter.   

• The Veggie Egg Bake is super satisfying.  
• You can make it as easy or difficult as you like by what you choose to put in it.  
• Use leftover vegetables or saute up some fresh ones.   
• It's lower in fat and cholesterol by using all egg whites, tremendously satiating and bulky with the vegetables (since we do eat by volume most of the time), and leaving out the crust that you would find in a quiche.    
• Not to mention this is a great dish for leftovers.  They can help themselves whenever they are hungry.
