SOUTHWEST SONORAN SUNRISE BREAKFAST QUICHE

Ready, Set, Cook! Special Edition Contest Entry: I love a breakfast casserole that can be kept in the refrigerator and everyone can help themselves to it in the morning ! I created this so we could have a tasty, satisfying breakfast that would be fast and versatile. This would also be delicious with a side of salsa and hearty bread toasted. I actually make this every week and it is easy to change it up using different seasonings and vegetables. Reheats in the microwave easily, can even put in a pita or tortilla and take it on the go! Great brunch dish too...
