  5. I love breakfast for any meal, and this looks quick to put together, versatile and delish! As you know I am gluten free, I’ve found a great bread without gluten, but I never eat the ends of the loaf. This will give me something to use them for! Brilliant. I’ll throw them in the freezer and save to make this Strata. As always, you come through with a great recipe and a great solution to my “heel” issue! LOL

  18. Its sad how I barely ever cook turkey during the year and even more sad at how quickly I run out of ideas as to what to do with the left overs! Thanks so much for posting this at the Turn It Up Tuesday link party!

  21. I make some sort of quiche, strata, or fritatta for Christmas brunch every year too. I never thought to put turkey in mine though; what a great idea. I sure have plenty of it left!
