Tips:

- Use a mini muffin tin for perfect individual-sized quiches. - To save time, use pre-made tortillas or pie crusts for the crust. - For a vegetarian version, omit the chorizo and add extra black beans and vegetables. - Add your favorite Mexican toppings like avocado, salsa, and sour cream before serving. - For a spicier quiche, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or diced jalapeños. - To make ahead of time, assemble the quiches and bake them until almost set. Then, let them cool completely and store them in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When you're ready to serve, reheat them in a preheated oven until warmed through.
