In honor of the upcoming Cinco de Mayo holiday, we have a delicious quiche recipe that features all of the most delicious Mexican flavors.
This recipe is easy to customize—you can add any of your other favorite flavors from the Southwest or south of the border—corn, chilies, chorizo. The recipe is also easy to adjust for kids or family members that don’t like too much heat or those that want to pile on the salsa. Spice up you Cinco de Mayo breakfast and let us know whether you made any changes or substitutions.
