Combine the familiar and tasty flavor of traditional quiches with the heartier consistency of casseroles to make this tasty, filling, and surprisingly simple breakfast casserole. This bacon potato quicke casserole is sure to filly hungry bellies and is ideal for a crowd. You are going to love this breakfast casserole with fresh potatoes.

From the Chef: "When I think of quiche, I think light and airy, served with a glass of champagne at a ladies' lunch. Well, this is not that kind of dainty quiche. If you like the consistency and flavor profile of a quiche but are hoping for a heartier dish, then you are in luck. Within the rich egg custard, crisp roasted potatoes and salty bacon add a welcome texture and crunch."
