Sausage And Spinach Quiche Recipes

Steps:

• Cook sausage till browned, breaking it up as you go, drain on paper towels and set aside.
• Thaw spinach in microwave or if you are cooking fresh you will need almost double. I like the finely chopped that is in a box for 1.00.
• Get out your pie crusts and line the bottoms with half the spinach, and sausage each.
• In a larger bowl combine all of the cheese but a handful, the eggs, half and half, salt, and pepper.
• Pour half of the mixture into each shell and sprinkle the remaining handful of cheese over both.
• Bake at 350 about 40-45 minutes. You can do a toothpick test, try not to overbake, your eggs won't be as fluffy.
• if your pie crusts are browning too fast you can cover them in foil just not the whole pie, you want a pretty light golden top and the air to make it rise.
• Serve warm. You can make the pies the night before and bake in the morning or they do reheat well. If you are freezing let it cool completely then portion out and wrap each slice individually or wrap the whole thing and freeze.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Bake pie shells for 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in a large mixing bowl thoroughly combine the remaining ingredients.
• Pour the filling into the pie shells.
• Bake for 35 to 45 minutes, or until set.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Line the pie crust with parchment paper, fill with baking beans or pie weights and bake for 15 minutes. Carefully remove the baking beans and parchment and continue to bake until golden brown, 10 to 13 minutes more. Allow to cool to room temperature before filling.
• Lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees F.
• Meanwhile, in a mortar and pestle or food processor, grind the spinach, parsley, sage, mint and marjoram with 1 teaspoon salt until a very coarse paste forms. If it doesn't form into a paste, add 1 tablespoon water.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, melted butter and herb paste until combined. Stir in 1 cup of the cheese.
• Line the pie crust with the sausage, pour in the egg mixture and top with the remaining 1/2 cup cheese. Bake until the center is set and the top is dark golden, 45 to 55 minutes. Cool at room temperature for 1 hour before serving.

Steps:

• Cook sausage over medium-high until lightly browned, about 5-7 minutes, being sure to break up the meat into a fine mince.
• Remove cooked sausage from pan and wipe away excess fat with a paper towel.
• Add onion and sauté until softened and translucent, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add mushrooms, salt, and pepper and continue to cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
• Add chopped spinach and cook until wilted and no extra liquid has accumulated in the bottom of the pan.
• NOTE: Do your best to use the excessive moisture of the spinach and mushrooms to deglaze the bottom of the pan, scraping away any browned bits from cooking the sausage earlier.
• Preheat oven to 350˚F (180˚C).
• Once cooked, remove the spinach and mushroom mixture from the pan and combine it with the reserved cooked sausage. Stir to mix evenly.
• Combine eggs and milk. Lightly whisk until just combined.
• Add sausage and spinach mixture to the bottom of a prepared 9-inch (23cm) pie crust, making sure to spread it evenly.
• Pour in beaten eggs to fill the rest of the pie crust and top with a generous sprinkle of parmesan cheese.
• Bake at 350˚F (180˚C) for 25 minutes or until the eggs are set and the top is lightly browned. Allow to cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• In a skillet, brown sausages until no longer pink. Drain and cut into small pieces; place in the pie shell. Sprinkle with cheese. In a bowl, beat eggs; add cream and nutmeg. Pour over cheese. , Bake at 350° for 55-60 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Place the bacon in a large, deep skillet, and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes. Drain the bacon slices on a paper towel-lined plate. Chop when cool.
• Fit the pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish, and set aside.
• In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, cream, salt, black pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and hot pepper sauce. Spread the spinach into the bottom of the pie crust; top with bacon, Cheddar cheese, and green onion. Pour the egg mixture over the filling, and sprinkle the quiche with Parmesan cheese.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the top is lightly puffed and browned, and a knife inserted into the center of the quiche comes out clean, 35 to 45 minutes.
