Are you looking for a quick and easy way to feed your family?

These Breakfast Turkey & Egg Croissants are an excellent idea for a morning meal or a lazy weekend brunch. Don't let the name fool you into having this only for breakfast.

If you're feeling audacious, you could even have this for dinner (as my husband did)!

I'm happy to partner with Turkey Farmers of Canada again this year to bring you more easy and delicious recipes using turkey.

I've always got some type of turkey deli meat in my fridge.

Along with cheese and eggs, it's a staple in my house. My kids love the taste of turkey, and I like how it's a lean protein.

So if you've got turkey meat, cheese, and eggs hanging out in your fridge, you've got all the building blocks for this breakfast croissant.

Simple & delicious

Flaky croissants stuffed with roasted sliced turkey deli meat, sweet caramelized onions, melted cheese and egg are transformed into a decadent and delicious meal.

Once you have all your components together, it only takes a matter of minutes to assemble and pop it in the oven.

How to prepare the croissants

Day-old store-bought croissants are ideal since they'll be reheated in the oven, but it's absolutely fine if you have freshly baked croissants on hand.

Cut the croissants about ⅓ of the way from the top.

Remove the "top," and make a well by lightly cutting (not all the way through) the inside of the croissant, and push the interior down.

Assembling the croissants

Slather a little Dijon mustard in the bottom of the croissant
Stuff the well with roasted turkey deli meat
Layer on the caramelized onions
Add cheese
Top with an egg

Easy, right? And of course, you can tailor it to whatever you have on hand -- use shredded turkey meat if you've got that from Easter or Thanksgiving leftovers.
