A couple weeks ago we had a crazy amount of snow and for some reason I was over come with a desire to make quiche. I keep frozen pie crusts in the freezer for this very purpose and as I examined the rest of the contents I found some frozen turkey, bacon, and spinach and I thought ahhh yes that does sound tasty.
I’m kind of a ‘seat of the pants’ sort of cook. And you know what it turned out pretty tasty. And I figure that as yummy as Thanksgiving leftovers are, some of you may be ready to repurpose all that turkey you have left over.
Ingredients
- 1/2 C Chopped or Shredded Turkey (or Chicken)
- 1/2 Pack Bacon
- 1 C Shredded Hash brown Potatoes
- 3 Eggs
- 1/2 C Milk
- 1 C Shredded Cheese
- 1/2 C Plain Green Yogurt or sour cream
- 1/2 C to 1 C chopped spinach (I used about 1/2 C frozen but not packed)
- 1TBS Flour
- Onion Powder, Garlic Salt, Salt and Pepper and Paprika to taste
- 1 frozen pie crust (I have used both regular and deep dish)
Directions
Cook bacon and remove from grease. Add frozen potatoes and turkey to bacon drippings and allow to cool/thaw. With a fork beat eggs and milk. Once potato turkey combo is cool, add along with remaining ingredients except paprika. Stir to fully combine.
Top with a sprinkling of paprika to add color. Cook on 350F for 60 to 90 minutes until golden brown and set. Enjoy

So where were you and your quiche at 7 AM this morning?? Would have been a better breakfast than my food bar. :-) This looks delicious and I had to pin it!

How much spinach did you use? I do not see in the ingredients.

Thanks for catching that donnaing! I used about 1/2 cup of chopped frozen spinach.

Clever you! I would never have thought to toss leftover turkey into a quiche, but I guess I’m not a very good “fly-by-the-seat-of-my-pants” kind of cook. I wish I were! It looks fabulous, and being the quiche loving family that we are, I’m sure we would love this. I’ll definitely be giving it a try! Thanks for sharing over at Sweet Sharing Monday!
