Top with more cheese and bake in the center rack for 14-16 minutes or until the cheese starts to brown. Let them cool for at least 5 minutes before removing them from the pan. Serve alone or with a little ranch or ketchup for dipping. Store any leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days. Recipe Notes: The mixture will seem a bit dry, but this is what makes them crispy and not too eggy. Add an extra egg if you want more of a quiche consistency. They&#8217;re great for breakfast this way!\u00c2\u00a0 Like things crispy? You can add a pinch of cheese to the bottom of your greased muffin tin wells before adding your mixture. \u00c2\u00a0Feel free to season however you&#8217;d like. You could also add onion powder or black pepper. Don&#8217;t forget that the Ritz crackers already have added salt.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Broccoli Cheese Cups &nbsp; 3 cups cooked and chopped broccoli 1 large egg 12 Ritz crackers (crushed) 1 heaping cup of cheddar cheese (plus more for topping) 1\/2 tsp. garlic powder 1\/2 tsp. salt Preheat your oven to 375 degrees.\u00c2\u00a0 In a medium size bowl, mix all of the ingredients together until well incorporated.\u00c2\u00a0 Generously grease a mini muffin tin and evenly distribute the mixture into about 16 of your muffin tin cups.\u00c2\u00a0 Use your fingers to squish the mixture&#8230;<\/p>\n<p class=\"read-more\"><a class=\"btn btn-default\" href=\"https:\/\/pcgirl.net\/recipes\/?p=29855\"> Read More<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">  Read More<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[19,14],"tags":[122,178],"class_list":["post-29855","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-breakfasts","category-meat-free","tag-cheese","tag-eggs"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/pcgirl.net\/recipes\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29855","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/pcgirl.net\/recipes\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/pcgirl.net\/recipes\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pcgirl.net\/recipes\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pcgirl.net\/recipes\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=29855"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/pcgirl.net\/recipes\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29855\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":29857,"href":"https:\/\/pcgirl.net\/recipes\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29855\/revisions\/29857"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/pcgirl.net\/recipes\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=29855"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pcgirl.net\/recipes\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=29855"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/pcgirl.net\/recipes\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=29855"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
