How To Make ~ turkey ~ cheese & sour cream quiche ~
-
Step 1Make crust, this one or your favorite, place in regular 9 inch pie shell, not deep dish. I use the shallow pie plate. Preheat oven to 400 degree F. In a skillet over medium heat, heat olive oil and add the peppers, onion and once are tender add the garlic of using. Cook another minute or until fragrant.
-
Step 2Add the turkey and seasonings, just heat through.
-
Step 3Spoon evenly into bottom of prepared crust. Now, sprinkle turkey evenly, with both cheeses.
-
Step 4In a bowl, whisk the eggs lightly and then whisk in the sour cream and milk, until smooth. Pour evenly over cheese.
-
Step 5Bake at 400 degree for 20 minutes, then reduce heat to 350 and bake another 25 - 30 minutes or until Quiche is set.
-
Step 6Let cool for about 10 minutes before cutting into wedges. Enjoy! Its great at room temp as well.
