Sausage Cheese Tarts Recipes

Steps:

• Mix together sausage, cheese, ranch and red pepper.
• Scoop into tart shells.
• Bake@ 375 for 10-12 minutes.
• These also freeze very well.

Steps:

• For the dough: Add flour and salt to the bowl of a food processor and pulse a few times to mix. Add the butter to the bowl and pulse until the mixture looks like crumbly sand. Add the egg and water and pulse again until the dough comes together.
• Very lightly flour the work surface. Dump the dough onto the floured surface and knead a few times until it comes together. Shape the dough into a disc and roll out to a 13-inch circle. Press the dough into the bottom and sides of an 11-inch tart pan with a removable bottom. Level the edges with your fingers. Prick the bottom of the tart with a fork. Freeze until firm, 25 minutes.
• For the filling: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• While the tart is in the freezer, add the potatoes to a medium saucepan and cover with cold water. Add a big pinch of salt and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer, and cook the potatoes until tender but still with a bit of resistance, 5 to 6 minutes. Drain and cool.
• Lightly drizzle the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sausage, and cook, breaking up with the back of a wooden spoon until crumbly and browned, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the spinach by the handful and stir until it just wilts down. Season the mixture with salt and pepper and stir in the green onions. Remove to a bowl to cool.
• Crack the eggs into a medium bowl and stir in the milk. Whisk together until combined and then add some salt and pepper.
• Remove the tart from the freezer. Cover the top with parchment paper and add pie weights or dried beans. Place on a sheet tray and bake for 20 minutes.
• Remove the pie weights and parchment paper and continue baking for 10 minutes more.
• Turn the oven temperature down to 350 degrees F.
• Evenly sprinkle the par-baked tart shell with half of the grated cheese, then the cooked potatoes, and finally top with the sausage and spinach mixture. Pour the eggs over the top and sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Bake for 45 minutes.
• Cool the tart for 10 minutes before serving. Can be served warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F. Unfold crust on work surface. Press together any cracks in dough to seal crust. Place crust in 9-inch-diameter tart pan with removable bottom; fold in excess dough and press, forming double-thick sides that extend about 1/4 inch above rim of pan. Pierce crust with fork. Bake crust 5 minutes; press with back of fork if crust bubbles up. Continue to bake until crust is golden brown, about 10 minutes. Set aside. Reduce oven temperature to 400°F.
• Meanwhile, sauté sausages in heavy medium skillet over medium-high heat until brown, breaking into small pieces with back of fork, about 6 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer sausage to large bowl; cool. Add mozzarella, salami, Parmesan, and basil. Toss sausage mixture to blend. Spoon sausage mixture into prepared crust. Beat eggs, milk, and nutmeg in medium bowl to blend; season with pepper. Pour custard over sausage mixture in crust.
• Bake tart until filling is set in center and golden brown on top, about 30 minutes. Let cool 10 minutes and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Add sausage to a frying pan over medium-high heat. Cook and stir with a spatula, breaking apart the sausage until cooked, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and let cool.
• Combine regular and vegetable cream cheese, Cheddar cheese, bell pepper, green onion, and cooled, crumbled sausage in a bowl. Mix well and set aside.
• Unroll 1 crescent dough sheet and press into a 9x12-inch rectangle. Cut 6 rows across and 4 rows vertically to yield 24 squares. Repeat with the second package of dough.
• Place 1 square in each cup of two nonstick 24-cup mini muffin tins, pressing it into the bottom and up the sides.
• Drop 1 heaping teaspoon of sausage filling into each cup. Filling should be up to the top of the cup, but you do not need to press it down.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the dough is golden brown, 11 to 13 minutes.
• Cool for 5 minutes in the tins before removing to a platter.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degree F.
• Unwrap piecrusts and roll each out to slightly thinner than original thickness. Use a 4-inch cookie cutter to cut circles out of crust; gently press each circle into bottom and up the sides of ungreased muffin cup baking pans (crust will not reach top of tin). If necessary, re-roll dough scraps to make additional dough circles.
• Combine cooked sausage with remaining ingredients; mix well. Spoon mixture into each crust, filling about 3/4 full.
• Bake 40 minutes or until crust is browned.

Steps:

• Bake the tart shell at 450 degrees for 7 minutes. Set aside. Reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees.
• Remove the casing from the sausage. Crumble the sausage into a skillet. Cook until cooked through and drain on paper towels.
• Combine the cottage cheese and eggs in a blender or food processor container. Process until blended. Pour into a large bowl. Beat in the potatoes, sour cream, oregano, salt, and pepper.
• Place the sausage in the tart shell. Spoon in the potato mixture over the sausage. Brush the top with butter. Sprinkle with the cheese.
• Bake for 50 to 60 minutes or until heated through.
• Just before serving, arrange the tomato halves cut side down down around the outer edge of the tart.
