I always love Kentucky Hot Brown Sandwich. And to enjoy it in a quiche form is even better! This quiche is made with turkey, bacon, tomatoes, Swiss cheese, eggs, heavy cream, sour cream, and pie crust. You can assemble this quiche and freeze, unbaked, for later. Even the baked quiche is freezer-friendly. You can serve this delicious Kentucky Hot Brown Quiche for breakfast, lunch, or even dinner.
This Kentucky Hot Brown Quiche is a popular Derby-themed food. My husband has always been a fan of this quiche. It’s like eating our fave sandwich, but in a quiche form. And instead of the mornay sauce, I just used Swiss cheese instead.

1 (9”) frozen deep-dish pie crust
