Quiche…

Double Recipe Day!

My son, Tyler does not really care for eggs. He will eat them, but could care or less if they are on his plate. I have been craving quiche for a while, and decided I would make it Saturday for breakfast. It has been over a decade, since I made my last one. My husband does not care for it, so I just haven’t made one.

I had four of the mozzarella sausage balls left, so I chopped them up and used them in my quiche instead of cooking bacon or more sausage.

I made the standard 9-inch pie and when breakfast was over there was only one slice left. I had one and my non-egg loving son ate the other six slices. Ty told me “wow this is so good; you have to put this on the blog.” I laughed and told him it was not a recipe I came up with; quiche has been around for a little bit.

 For the crust, I cheated and used a frozen one, and pre-cooked it to the manufacture instructions. Like I have said before, I can make a piecrust but it is not pretty.

Ingredients:

5 eggs

2 cups grated Swiss cheese

1 ½ cups whipping cream

1 small onion, diced

4 mozzarella sausage cheese balls / or half a cup of bacon or ground sausage

Salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

In small skillet sauté onion in butter until translucent

In a bowl whisk eggs and whipping cream until frothy

In bottom of cooked piecrust spread evenly onions, sausage and cheese

Pour egg mixture into the crust until the mixture just reaches ¼ inch from the top of the crust.

Cook in oven for 40 minutes, until firm

Cool 10 minutes before serving.
