New Year's Quiche

Deni
One of my favorite go-to quiches but I just so happened to make it on New Year's this year.
Course Breakfast, Brunch

Equipment

  • 1 Skillet
  • 1 Baking Dish
  • 1 Small Bowl

Ingredients
  

  • Black Pepper Cracked or Ground
  • Onion Powder
  • Tony Chachere's
  • 6 Large Eggs
  • Milk
  • 1 Roll Ground Breakfast Sausage (Jimmy Dean is my favorite)
  • 1 Bag Shredded Cheese (I typically use Colby Jack or Mild Cheddar)
  • 1 Bag Baby Spinach
  • 1/4 White Onion diced
  • Olive Oil or Butter

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350 degrees
  • On medium heat and in a medium to large skillet, preferably a non-stick one, add a small amount of oil or butter. Add your sausage and start browning your sausage and breaking it up as you go.
  • Once the sausage starts to brown about halfway, start adding spinach. I go a handful at a time. One handful, mix with the browning sausage, and then so on and so forth until the whole bag is in with the sausage. Spinach shrinks up as it cooks.
  • While the sausage and spinach are marrying in the skillet, add two handfuls of your shredded cheese and mix into your sausage and spinach. Just letting the cheese melt a little before taking it off the heat.
  • In a bowl (I like using a measuring cup,) crack your six eggs. After cracking, add about a ½ cup of milk to your eggs (makes them fluffy, works with scrambling eggs too,) along with your seasonings. Whisk them together, you can use a whisk or fork. I like using a fork.
  • In a casserole dish or baking pan, lightly oil your pan.
  • Add in your sausage-spinach dish before pouring your eggs on top. Top the mixture with 1-2 handfuls of cheese and pop it in the oven.
  • Bake for about 20 minutes or until the edges are slightly brown.
