I love me some quiche. Something about cheesy eggs with a flaky crust just does it for me. And it’s super easy to make. I was feeling a little under the weather today, but wanted something warm and comforting for dinner, so I spent 10 minutes in the kitchen preparing this and man am I glad I did! Not sure if this is weird, but I always make quiche for dinner, not breakfast. Anyone else?…Bueller?…Bueller? (80s movie reference for those of you that don’t know.)
I used a frozen pie crust and just started layering in the goodies. First went the sausage – one Aidell’s Italian Style chicken sausage.
Next I added frozen chopped spinach, thawed.
I topped it with mozzarella and cheddar. (You can never have too much cheese in my book.)
Then I whisked together 3 eggs, 1 cup of milk, salt, and pepper, and poured the mixture into the pie crust.
After 35-45 minutes at 375 degrees…
..mmmm, ohhh yeahhhh. And I totally forgot to take a picture of a nice cheesy slice because I gobbled it down as soon as it hit the plate…and then went back for seconds. The sausage in this was so flavorful and added a nice kick.
I’ll be living off of this for the next day or two since, like some other baked dishes – including homemade mac and cheese – I think quiche is even better reheated.
What are your favorite quiche fillings? Are there any meals you like better the next day?
