Ingredients
  

  • 1 9-inch pie shell frozen, store bought
  • 1.5 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 pound ground sausage
  • 1 cup Four-Blend Cheddar, Off the Block, Shredded
  • 1/2 white onion, chopped or diced
  • 1 handful spinach, loosely chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, finely chopped or minced use 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder if that's all you have on hand
  • 1 jalapeño, diced without seeds
  • 1/2 Roma tomato, diced
  • 1 large can Pet milk approximately 1 cup
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 tablespoon Parsley
  • 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes optional
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper optional

Instructions
 

  • Brown sausage; drain.
  • Place sausage in pie shell.
  • Sprinkle flour on top of ground sausage evenly.
  • Mix tomatoes, onions, jalapeno, spinach, and cheese in a bowl.
  • Sprinkle vegetable mixture on top of sausage.
  • Beat eggs and milk until fully combined, then add parsley and give it a quick swirl.
  • Pour egg mixture on top of sausage, veggies, and cheese.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes or until set.
  • Serve and enjoy!

Notes

  • Add cayenne pepper and crushed red pepper flakes only if you like it spicy. 
  • If you're making a quiche for the weekend, you can go ahead and prepare the full pound of ground sausage, and place the other half pound in a storage container for the next morning OR you can freeze it for later.
  • If you're making two breakfast quiche (one for now, one for later), you can cut back to 3/4 cup of evaporated milk. Save the remaining evaporated milk for the next morning.
  • I've made my quiche with ONE egg and TWO. One egg works just fine, with one cup of evaporated (Pet Milk). Two eggs will make it thicker, but not much difference in my opinion. Just don't forget to sprinkle flour on your pie shell after you've added the ground sausage.
  • I love the "Off the Block" 4-State Cheddar by Sargento. It has given me the best cheesy consistency. Any Off the Block cheddar will work or you can buy the amount of block cheese you need, and use a cheese grater to shred it yourself. This works especially well with specialty cheeses from your local grocery store. Just make sure your shreds are medium/thick.
