Festive Foodies: National Baking Month
I’ve baked up a quiche for breakfast or brunch. They’re my favorite thing! What do you like to bake or prep for a relaxed weekend breakfast?
See some ideas from my blogging friends below:
I’ve selected some of my picks that I would serve with my quiche on a brunch table. Having a variety of things for your guests to pick from is always a plus.

Spinach and Sun-Dried Tomato Quiche
Spinach is one of my favorite ingredients to add to quiche. Besides mushrooms and broccoli.
It really is one of the best known ways to sneak some extra vegetables into your breakfast plan. If you serve it for brunch, a salad with it is perfect. I like simple ones with some fruit and vinaigrette.
And of course although this has a crust, I doubt I would ver turn down a croissant with Euro butter.
