Hosting brunch is easy when you build a menu around exceptional ingredients. Your dishes don’t have to be overly complicated when you let stand-out flavors steal the show.

Quiche is a brunch staple, and no variation of this classic is complete without cheese. Known for its classic wedge, Jarlsberg cheese is a nutty, mild cheese. Available sliced or shredded, it adds a creamy richness to this quiche recipe.

For a lighter bite, try these smashed potatoes from Chef George Duran, host of television’s TLC’s “Ultimate Cake Off” and Food Network’s “Ham on the Street.” Explore more recipes for brunch at jarlsberg.com.
