Spinach Quicheis a dish that is versatile and can be eaten for breakfast, brunch or dinner. It is full of eggs, spinach, sausage and cheese all filled in a delicious pie crust.

Quiche are delicious when made with a homemade crust but if you are pressed for time then feel free to use a store bought pie crust to hurry things up a bit.

Quiches are a great dish that can be served right away or made ahead of time and baked later. Quiches are fun to serve at a baby shower, girls luncheon or for your own family for breakfast. I can never turn down a quiche.

Spinach Sausage Quiche is a well balanced dish that is hearty and wholesome. The flavors combine so beautifully and this dish is very filling.

I love to serve my breakfast quiche with some fruit, toast or yogurt. If I am serving it for lunch or dinner I might add a side salad or soup to the meal but to be honest most times I serve it as a stand alone dish and everyone enjoys it.

Recipe Instructions

To start, preheat the oven to 450 degrees Fahrenheit and unroll a pie crust into a 9 inch deep dish pie pan.
After pinching the edges and poking the crust multiple times, line it with aluminum foil or parchment paper, fill it with dried beans or pie weights, and bake for 10-12 minutes.
Then, reduce the oven temperature to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. While the crust is baking, cook pork sausage, spinach, and minced garlic in a skillet until cooked through and fragrant.
After whisking together sour cream, half and half, eggs, and black pepper in a medium-sized bowl, mix the cooked sausage mixture with feta and mozzarella cheeses, and layer it into the bottom of the crust.
Pour the egg mixture over the sausage mixture, and bake for 50-65 minutes until set in the middle.
After cooling for at least 10 minutes, the quiche is ready to be served.

Frequently Asked Questions

When making a quiche should I make my own crust or buy one from the store?

Homemade crust is always delicious but to save time I like to buy store bought crust. Either one works well.

Can I use frozen spinach in quiche?

You can use frozen spinach in quiche but I prefer fresh spinach. The fresh spinach looks more appealing when cooked in the quiche than frozen spinach in my opinion.

How long does a quiche take to bake?

Quiches take about 50-60 minutes bake.

How can I tell if a quiche is fully cooked?

The quiche will be full baked when the center is set but there will be a subtle jiggle still. The quiche will harden up as it cools.
