Jalapeño Popper Quiche Cups are ready to rock your breakfast game!
It happened.
I’ve caught the won-ton bug again.
Though most are my secret recipes behind the scenes. Not because I’m withholding recipes from you, but because I lack photo evidence documenting the shenanigans.
Forgive me? I swear I’ll behave for now on!
In the meantime, I’m dishing out yet another won-ton quiche cup recipe that I wish I could be eating again for dinner right now had I not polished off all of the eggs. Sorry I’m not sorry? Don’t fret, I’ll go grocery shopping soon and whip up all sorts of craziness for you next week. Promise!

Recipe Notes
Serve simply with a sprinkling of green onion [yum!] or garnish with a dollop of greek yogurt [or sour cream] chopped green onion, and serve with a side of green salsa for dipping. Also, get your red pepper flake on... if you're into that sort of thing. I certainly am!

so… how were they?!
Amazing! I think it might be the crunch of the baked wonton wrappers that I’m most addicted to.
Or maybe it’s the fluffy eggs… melty cheese… and zesty jalapeños!
Paul’s cousin Kathy makes these amazing little breakfast bars that are basically layered eggs, cheddar, and pickled jalapeno. They’re beyond addicting and served as the inspiration behind these little quiche cups. Something about the combination of the crunchy wonton with the eggy cheesy jalapeño-y goodness reminds me of a jalapeño popper, hence the name of the recipe, folks!
Class dismissed, go make these immediately.

Every time you post a new wonton recipe, I kick myself for not having tried one yet! What is wrong with me?! I think I have foodie-ADD…maybe I should draw a picture and put it on my fridge…because obviously visual aides are needed in this sort of situation! Oh god, now I have another disorder that’s going to get me locked up in the foodie nut house! Mmm, did someone say nut?? I hope there’s PECAAAAAANS! 😉
