Turkey & Cheese Quiche

Quiches in general are a great way to get rid of leftovers, such as pasta, thanksgiving turkey, etc... This specific quiche is made with turkey and cheddar cheese, but you can experiment with any deli meat and cheese; either way, the results will still be the same. I usually serve this quiche for brunch or light lunch, accompanied with a tossed salad and mixed fresh fruits.

What You'll Need:

1 9 inch pie shell, thawed and unbaked
1 onion, finely chopped
3/4 cup smoked deli turkey, diced
3/4 cup shredded cheddar cheese
5 eggs
1/2 cup heavy cream
Salt & pepper to taste


What To Do:

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees
  2. In a skillet, sautee onion until golden, stir in diced turkey and cook for 2-3 min
  3. Place the turkey and onion mixture into the bottom of the pie, creating one even layer
  4. Sprinkle enough shredded cheese to cover the pie ingredients
  5. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, cream, salt, and pepper until foamy for 3-5 min
  6. Carefully and evenly pour this mixture into the pie.
  7. Bake for 25-30 min until golden brown or until a knife inserted in center comes out clean.
  8. Cut into wedges, serve warm or cold.
Enjoy!!
