My little guy is beyond picky; he will not eat anything from the cafeteria, and introducing him to new foods can be difficult. That is why this year I am already testing out some new recipes for his luck box.

Today I made some mini quiches with tomato, spinach, turkey, and queso fresco. To make these quiches, I used Oscar Mayer Deli Fresh turkey breast.
