So, sometimes we have breakfast for dinner.
Carys always exclaims "Mommy! Breakfast for dinner?!? That's not right!"
Oh do I love breaking the rules!
We love pancakes and sausage and all the yummy stuff. But tonight we're having my famous quiche. And man, am I looking forward to that!
This quiche is easy to make, but the cook time is a little too long for those of us who don't really get up early enough to prepare, bake & preoccupy a few starvin' people. Sleeping is, evidently, a very hunger-inducing process.
You can make it the night before and keep the egg mixture in a ziploc bag for the next morning. (Unfortunately, I only have the forethought to do this when it's Christmas Eve for our Christmas breakfast feast.)
Skye's Quiche
9 inch frozen deep-dish pie crust
1 pound sausage, cooked & drained well
1 cup cheese (I mostly use Monterrey-Jack, but Cheddar works well too)
1 large can of sliced mushrooms (or you can substitute 1 cup of peeled apples - YUM!)
1/2 chopped onion
1/2 cup chopped bell pepper
1/2 tsp basil
1/4 tsp garlic
Salt & Pepper to taste
4 large eggs, beaten
1 cup milk
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Prick bottom of pie crust & bake for about 8 minutes.
Turn down heat to 325 degrees.
Combine sausage, cheese, mushrooms & spices. Spoon into pie crust.
Beat eggs well, pour over sausage mixture.
Bake at 325 degrees for about 50 minutes or until set. Let stand 10-15 minutes before serving.
Pair it with a simple side salad, and FEAST!
