1/2 cup red or green bell pepper chopped

1/4 cup scallions -- chopped

2 eggs -- beaten

2 egg whites -- beaten

1 teaspoon chili powder

1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

1/8 teaspoon ground red pepper

1/2 cup cheddar cheese -- shredded

Oven at 425 degrees. Saute bell pepper and scallions until tender in skillet ( preheated to hot). Beat ALL eggs slightly. Stir in sauteed veggies with eggs and then all remaining ingredients. Spoon 1 tablespoon of mix into muffin tins (small ones ? 3/4 x 1 inch cups). Bake until centers are set - about 8 to 10 m inutes. Allow to cool a minute and then remove from tin. (They may need a bit of persuasion with a knife around the edges.) Serve hot or warm. Makes around 20 little quiches (a bite full).
