There’s nothing better than a fresh-baked quiche on Christmas morning.

8 Christmas Morning Quiche Recipes
Whether it’s just two of you or six, quiche is a classic dish meant for sharing.

So, I’ve rounded up 8 delicious quiche recipes to inspire your Christmas brunch menu!

Many other brunch dishes get all the attention but I think quiche is the perfect brunch food. If you like breakfast casserole you’re sure to love quiche!

Reasons why quiche is the perfect brunch food

You can make it ahead of time: I am a huge proponent of prepping ingredients ahead of time. So for a quiche recipe you can cook a store-bought crust the day before. Then, prep the fillings and refrigerate then until the morning. AND if you want to get really fancy, try your hand at making your own pie crust.

It’s filling: With a combination of eggs, cream or milk and other mix-ins baked in the pie crust, each slice is filling and can be simply served with salad greens or hashbrowns for a full meal.

Flavour combinations: There are so many combinations of ingredients to suit everyone’s tastes! Broccoli-cheddar cheese; bacon-mushroom-spinach; or an all veggie version.

Are you on team quiche yet??

This is one of my favourite ways to make salads in This is one of my favourite ways to make salads in the winter - ROAST some fav veggies together and then add them to salad greens, topped with feta, walnuts and a balsamic dressing. 

The best part is you can mix and match what you like so carrots would be delish, chopped almonds or goat cheese are great substitutes. 

Here’s generally how I make it:

1 large sweet potato, cubed
4 golden beets, peeled and cubed
12 Brussels sprouts, quartered 
Olive oil
Salt & pepper
Salad greens
Chopped walnuts
Feta 

Dressing: Mix together 1/4 cup olive oil, 3 tbsp balsamic vinegar, 2 tbsp maple syrup, 1x garlic clove minced, salt and pepper 

Toss the vegetables with a couple tablespoons olive oil and season generously with salt and pepper. Roast at 415 F for 30-35 minutes or until done to your liking. Add veggies to your favourite salad greens and top with nuts, cheese and dressing.

2 tbsp olive oil
1 small yellow onion, diced
3 garlic cloves, minced

½ tsp salt
Ground pepper

4 cups chopped & peeled yellow potatoes
6 cups vegetable or chicken broth
1 cup shredded white cheddar cheese plus more for garnish
Toppings: Minced chives & Sour cream or plain ruffle chips

INSTRUCTIONS:
1. In a large pot, add oil over medium heat. Add onions and cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes. 
2. To the pot add minced garlic, dried thyme, coarse salt, a couple turns of ground pepper and a pinch of chili flakes. Stir and cook for 2 more minutes. 
3. Add the potatoes, beans and broth, stir and bring the soup to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, turn down to medium-low heat and simmer for 20-25 minutes until potatoes have softened / are fork tender. 
4. Remove the pot from the heat. 
5. Use a hand blender to blend the soup right in the pot. Or transfer 2 cups at a time to a stand blender to blend until smooth then return the soup to the pot. Adjust seasoning to your liking with more salt and pepper; add more broth if too thick; and then stir in 1 cup of shredded white cheddar.
