Potato & Chorizo Mini Quiches – One Last Super Bite for Your Super Bowl

To all of you that have been requesting mini-cupcake videos: this mini quiche recipe may be as close as I get. I'm sorry, but it's hard for me to get excited about buttercream when I have chorizo, potato and manchego in the house. Okay, one's a sweet treat and other is a savory snack, so it's not a fair comparison, but on the bright side, this intro paragraph is done.

This little baked bite is very loosely based on the Spanish Tortilla, and not only is it dead simple to make, but the versatility of the technique allows this to be adapted to any occasion. From ruckus Super Bowl celebration to black tie Oscar party, these mini quiches will always be a crowd-pleaser.

I'd almost be insulted if you didn't make changes to the ingredients to tailor this to your tastes, but I do recommend that little dab of aioli on the top. I spiked a classic, garlicky aioli with some smoked paprika and chive, and it really made these treats even more special. I hope you give them a try soon. Enjoy!
