Mini Mushroom and Bacon Quiches

8 slices of bacon diced small
8 ounces fresh mushrooms, sliced
1/4 cup sliced green onions
1/4 cup shredded Swiss cheese
1 t. freshly ground pepper
5 eggs
3 egg whites
1 cup milk

Preheat oven to 325 degrees and coat a nonstick muffin pan generously with cooking spray. Heat a large skillet and brown bacon, transfer to paper towels when done. Reserve a couple tablespoons of bacon grease and add mushrooms to cook, stirring often until golden brown (approx. 5 t0 7 minutes). Transfer mushrooms and bacon to mixing bowl. Let cool and add green onions, cheese and pepper.

Whisk eggs, egg whites and milk in medium bowl. Divide the egg mixture evenly among the prepared muffin cups. Sprinkle a heaping tablespoon of the bacon mixture into each cup. Bake until the tops are just beginning to brown, about 25 minutes. Let cool and enjoy!
