Whether you’re feeding a large crowd, meal prepping for the week, or simply enjoying a slow weekend breakfast, this Breakfast Quiche is a winner. It’s loaded with eggs, veggies, sausage (or bacon, depending on what’s on hand), and a layer of hash browns for added texture and flavor. Plus, it’s super customizable—use whatever veggies you have left in the fridge before they go bad!

I originally created this recipe as a twist on the Christmas casserole my mom used to make. After cutting out the breadcrumbs, I wanted something that was still hearty but packed with vegetables. Over time, this recipe evolved to include a hash brown layer, which gives the quiche the perfect base. Whether you make it with sausage, bacon, or another protein, this quiche is an easy go-to that always satisfies.

Christmas Traditions

I started making this recipe when I wanted to recreate my mom’s Christmas casserole, a tradition in our house growing up. After cutting out breadcrumbs, I needed something filling and veggie-packed. My first attempt was simply eggs, bacon, and spinach—it was good, but I knew I could improve it. Over the years, this quiche has evolved to include hash browns as a base, which adds a bit of texture that’s missing with just eggs. I love how versatile this recipe is—it’s always a hit, whether I’m serving it for a holiday breakfast or prepping for busy weekdays.
