Mexican Taco Quiche
This Mexican-inspired quiche is a great breakfast or brunch main dish. Prepare the taco meat the night before and keep it refrigerated. Warm it up in the microwave the next morning to really speed up the prep time. I especially love serving this for a football brunch. Holds 'em over until halftime so I can watch the game too. Serve with sour cream and enjoy.
Air Fryer Bacon Wrapped Brussels Sprouts
Air fryer bacon wrapped Brussels sprouts come together by the time your grilled meat is finished resting. I serve this simple side dish with grilled steak, but these sprouts are equally good with chicken or pork.
