Mini Canadian Bacon Quiche

This would be perfect to serve as an appetizer for a luncheon or for a brunch.  The Canadian bacon sweetens the egg immensely.  They are delicious, but the end result ruined my muffin pan.  If you try to make these, over grease the pan!  The Canadian bacon didn't form the little cup that I had imagined.  Many of these stuck up so the egg mixture cooked underneath the bacon.  A solution could be cutting the bacon into a circle, but then the sides curving up around the egg would be missing.  Needless to say, I think this will be a one-hit wonder as we needed to throw away our muffin pan (as much as my environmentally-conscious self hated that fact.)

12 slices Canadian bacon
4 eggs
1-2 T milk
1 tsp Dijon mustard
1 tsp Parsley
1 tsp Italian Seasoning
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp garlic powder
5 sprigs of asparagus
shredded cheese
(These measurements are all to taste as I just eye-balled it)

Liberally grease the muffin pan.  Mold the Canadian bacon in each muffin tin to serve as, ideally, the crust.  Whisk together eggs, milk, mustard, seasonings and cheese.  Lightly stir in chopped asparagus.  Pour in the muffin tins, over the bacon.  Bake at 375 degrees for 20 minutes.
