Ingredients
(Tip: You’ll find the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)
1 cup cooked, diced turkey
2 ounces cream cheese
½ cup shredded cheddar cheese
1 green onion, chopped
¼ teaspoon hot sauce
½ teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
3 tablespoons sour cream
1 cup heavy cream
3 eggs
1 9-inch deep-dish pie crust
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the diced turkey for 3 to 5 minutes to remove excess moisture; set aside.
In a mixing bowl, combine the warm turkey with cream cheese, hot sauce, and Worcestershire sauce until the cream cheese melts into the meat.
Spread the turkey mixture evenly into the bottom of the pie crust. Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese and chopped green onion on top.
In a separate bowl, whisk together eggs, sour cream, and heavy cream until smooth. Pour this mixture over the meat and cheese layers.
Bake for about 60 minutes, or until the quiche is set and the top is golden brown. Let it cool for a few minutes before slicing.

Variations
Meat alternatives: While turkey is used in this recipe, I’ve swapped it out for chicken or ham before, and both work wonderfully!
Add vegetables: For extra flavor and nutrition, I love adding sautéed spinach, mushrooms, or bell peppers to the mix.
Cheese swap: Try using a different cheese like Monterey Jack or mozzarella if you prefer a milder flavor.
Spicier version: For more heat, I’ll add extra hot sauce or even a bit of diced jalapeños into the turkey mixture.
Storage/Reheating
Storage: If I have leftovers, I store the quiche in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
Reheating: To reheat, I warm slices in the oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10-15 minutes, or until heated through. Alternatively, I can microwave it for 1-2 minutes, but the oven helps retain the crust’s crispiness.
