Turkey Club Quiche with Bacon and Swiss Cheese
This Turkey Swiss Quiche has all the ingredients of a classic turkey club sandwich. Yes, it’s also filled with bacon, avocado, and tomato. That makes it a delicious and protein-packed meal that you can enjoy for breakfast or brunch, lunch or dinner. Use your favorite store-bought or homemade crust, and even make it gluten free!
Quiche sometimes gets a reputation for being a dainty dish. It’s what you order at brunch to nibble on as you sip on a mimosa. Ladies who lunch seem to enjoy quiche.
Despite being made by filling a pie crust with eggs and cheese and anything else you want to toss in, it’s somehow seen as a light, elegant, maybe even demure dish.
I’m here to change all that. With a family who rarely eats eggs in the morning but loves breakfast for dinner, I want to bring you hearty and satisfying quiche. While you can enjoy it straight out of the oven, it is also delicious at room temperature.
If you need to store it, let it cool, then either wrap the entire quiche or individual slices in plastic wrap. You can then warn it in a 350°F oven or in the microwave.
