FAQ:
Q: Are tuna cans safe to bake in?
A: Yes, as long as they’re clean and undamaged. Always check for sharp edges and ensure they are oven-safe (most are, but avoid any with coatings that could melt).
Q: Can I use other canned goods for this?
A: Absolutely! Any similarly sized can will work—just ensure it’s safe and clean.
Q: Can I freeze these mini quiches?
A: Yes! Wrap them individually and freeze for up to 2 months. Thaw and reheat when needed.
