Quiche for Thanksgiving Day Breakfast

Would you like to simplify things in the kitchen on Thanksgiving Day?  Why not make breakfast the day before while you are making your pies?  Cheese Salsa Crustless Quiche is very simple and can be cut, heated in the microwave and served on Thanksgiving Day morning. 

Cheese Salsa Crustless Quiche is low carb, easy, and it looks nice.  It will save you lots of time on the morning of the cooking marathon known as Thanksgiving Day.  Everyone can get their own slice when they get up or you can sit down to a family breakfast together.  Either way you can make some toast, pour some orange juice, get some coffee going and you have a nice healthy breakfast with no fussing. 

 I only have one oven and the turkey is in there on Thanksgiving Day so I do as much as possible the day before, including Cheese Salsa Crustless Quiche!

This lens is entered in the Squidoo Thanksgiving Cookoff and if it wins, Soldier's Angels will get a $1000 donation!

Update:  This lens was chosen as Lens of the Day on November 3, 2009.  This means that Squidoo will send a $1000 donation to Soldiers' Angels which pleases me no end!

Make your Thanksgiving Day breakfast the day before.
