MINI SAUSAGE AND MUSHROOM QUICHES

Steps:

• Set oven to 325 degrees (oven rack set to second-lowest position).
• Generously spray 12 regular-size muffin tins with cooking spray.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
• Add in the sausage meat and cayenne pepper (if using) and cook breaking up meat with a spoon into very small pieces; cook for about 10 minutes or until the meat is browned, transfer to a large bowl.
• Add in butter to the skillet; add in sliced mushrooms and cook for about 7-10 minutes or until browned; remove the mushrooms to the bowl; cool then chop into small pieces and add to the bowl with the cooked sausage meat.
• Add in the Swiss cheese and Parmesan cheese, finely chopped green onion, black pepper and seasoned salt to the sausage/cheese mixture; mix to combine.
• In a bowl whisk eggs, egg whites and half and half cream together until blended.
• Divide the egg mixture between each muffin tin.
• Sprinkle about 2 tablespoons sausage mixture on top of the egg mixture.
• Bake for about 25 minutes or until the tops are just beginning to brown.
• Let cool for 5 minutes in the tins.
• Place a rack on top of the pan, then flip it over and turn the quiches out onto the rack.
• Turn upright and let cool.
