Boxing Day Brunch | Leftover Scalloped Potato Crusted Quiche
Leftovers. I could live off leftovers… and to be honest some nights I do. But let me tell you, there is nothing like Christmas dinner leftovers. The turkey tastes better, the stuffing tastes better, the potatoes taste better… or maybe I’m just that hungry…
Anyways, one thing that is always guaranteed to be left over is scalloped potatoes. You probably ask how? But when you are feeding a family of 20+ you take no chances, and always make more than what we need… heaven forbid someone did not get potatoes!
So, seeing you have a massive amount of potatoes left over, why not incorporate into breakfast! Yes, I said scalloped potatoes at breakfast! Mmmm…

Thank you this was just the thing I was looking for (a casserole) for the leftover scalloped potatoes. We’re fans of breakfast/brunch for dinner and this dish was perfect! I took a pic before eating cause it looked so pretty. Definite keeper thanks!
