Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups leftover stuffing
- 5 large eggs
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, Swiss, or your preference)
- 1 cup cooked vegetables (e.g., spinach, broccoli, or mushrooms)
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon butter or nonstick spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Lightly grease a 9-inch pie dish or a similar-sized oven-safe dish with butter or nonstick spray.
Press the leftover stuffing evenly into the bottom and sides of the greased dish, forming a crust. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
Stir the shredded cheese and cooked vegetables into the egg mixture.
Pour the egg mixture evenly over the stuffing crust in the prepared dish.
Place the quiche in the preheated oven and bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is golden brown.
Allow the quiche to cool for 5–10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Enjoy warm, or refrigerate leftovers to enjoy within 3 days.
