I love making crustless quiches, they make a great mid-week lunch are nice and filling and can be eaten hot or cold.

So this week with my youngest at home, I wanted to make some egg bites that I knew the kids would love to.

Wanna know what my kids favourite food is? Pizza!! - isn't it most kids favourite food? I think it's that doughy base and delicious cheesy topping that has everyone grabbing for an extra slice.

Most recipes come from inspiration from my kids and what they like and this is no exception. It was a pretty genius moment in the kitchen.

On Slimming we can often get to lunchtime with no healthy extra b choice and so when you fancy pizza, it can be a little tough to make something without the usual base.

That's were these yummy Pizza Egg Bites are just perfect!!

Lunch, dinner, a picnic, for a party, Slimming taster - you name it, these will go down well.

I lined the muffin tray with some parchment paper, you don't need to do this if you don't want to, I just find it makes the clean up afterwards much easier.

Make these into a main meal, by serving with some of my Perfect Chips or you could choose these Butternut Squash Fries.

Don't like pepperoni? No problem, add some ham or sausage or even chicken.

You could even swap out the pizza sauce for some barbecue sauce to make barbecue pizza egg bites and if you are vegetarian, keep it to just veggie choices, but adding some diced peppers, olives etc.

How can I add a ⅓ vegetables to these Pizza Egg Bites?

The obvious choice, of course, is a mixed salad, keep it nice and simple, even if you are enjoying these as a main, a side salad alongside these is perfect.

Crisp shredded lettuce, some julienned carrot, tomatoes, cucumber, beetroot, go for whatever salad vegetable you fancy.
