There's nothing like a savory, cheesy quiche to get your day started right. It's hearty enough that you could even have it for dinner if you'd like. Why not! Thanks to the convenience of using phyllo dough, this impressive-looking, party-worthy quiche comes together in under an hour. Fat-free evaporated milk, low-fat Swiss cheese, and turkey bacon help keep this recipe from putting the calories over the top, so you can enjoy it at any time. If you want more veggies in your quiche, add 1 cup chopped steamed broccoli florets to the pie plate along with the cheese and bacon in Step 4.
