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.
