To prepare, you will spread cheese to the edge of the warm, bacon-laden grits –which forms the crust. This will prevent any custard from seeping out while the quiche bakes.

Serve with grits and fruit for a filling meal, and finish the brunch with a decadent desert like Bananas Foster Coffee Cake with Ambrosia Sauce for a holiday-worthy brunch that all of your friends will remember for years to come.
