Sausage and Spinach Quiche image

This is my favorite, I make it at least weekly. Good flavorful sausage is key, I like the regular jimmy dean. This recipe is for two pies because I make two at once. They go fast, freeze well, and that means less dishes later.

Time 1h5m

Yield 2 Pies, 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 deep dish pie shells
16 ounces jimmy dean sausage
8 eggs
3/4 cup half-and-half
8 ounces frozen spinach, boxed
2 cups fiesta shredded cheese
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper

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.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my quiche didn't turn out at all. The crust was raw and the filling was runny.

This quiche was a disappointment. The crust was soggy and the filling was bland.

I'm not a big fan of quiche, but this one was really good. The crust was flaky and the filling was flavorful.

This recipe is a keeper! I've already made it twice and it's been a hit both times.

I didn't have any sausage on hand, so I used ground beef instead. It turned out great!

The quiche was a little too salty for my taste, but otherwise it was very good.

I love that this recipe uses frozen spinach. It makes it so much easier to throw together on a busy weeknight.

I've made this quiche several times and it always turns out perfect. It's a great make-ahead breakfast or lunch option.

This quiche was a hit at my brunch party! The sausage and spinach filling was flavorful and the crust was flaky and golden brown. I will definitely be making this again.
