Southwestern Sausage Quiche
(Printable Recipe)
1/2 pound sausage

1/4 cup sour cream
1/3 cup milk
1 9-inch unbaked deep dish pie shell

You sure are on a roll - I think I've bookmarked your last 3 dishes and this is another that sounds delicious. Thanks for the advice on which Rotel to use.
ReplyDeleteI really like the sound of this one. The quiche that I've made in the past was kinda bland.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea.
I love quiche!! That looks great Steph - hope you have a wonderful weekend. Happy 4th!!
ReplyDeleteThis looks so good! I'd eat it any time of day!
ReplyDeleteI don't think you can go wrong with rotel, sausage and cheese. Looks awesome!
ReplyDeleteThe quiche looks lovely. I noticed the addition of ranch dressing. This is a must try.
ReplyDeleteYum! You're right--this looks great for an early tailgate. Great idea!
ReplyDeleteLooks great Stephanie! The Ranch Dressing is such an interesting ingredient. Another bookmarked.
ReplyDeleteReal men AND chicken legs eat quiche? LOL

I've just found your website and delicious recipes. This one sounds absolutely wonderful, but I have a question. You say one-and-a-half cheddar cheese. I am assuming you mean one-and-a-half POUNDS??
ReplyDeleteCarol - that should be cups. Although, 1 1/2 pounds would be good too!
ReplyDeleteJust found this and am excited to make it tonight. I got a frozen pie crust. Do I have to go ahead and bake that before I do the mixture?
ReplyDeleteTurner Aycock - you don't pre-bake the pie shell. Just bake it along with the quiche. Hope you enjoy it!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I am excited. Got some spicy sausage. I love breakfast casserole, so this looks like a good twist on that!
ReplyDeleteI pinned this several months ago and finally got around to making it tonight. It is SO good! Seriously one of the best quiches I've ever had. I doubled it so had to bake longer to get them both done and probably should have still done it a little longer to allow the center to set up a little more but overall I love it. This will be on repeat in our house!
ReplyDeleteThis may be a silly question but with the ranch dressing is it liquid or the dry ranch dressing?
ReplyDeleteThe ranch is liquid - already prepared in the bottle. Enjoy!
DeleteI omitted the sausage for a Meatless Monday meal, and added some cilantro. Maybe I didn't give it a chance, but mine didn't look remotely done at one hour (but I didn't let it sit first). I increased the temp and time. It ran too late to have it for dinner, but it's going to be fabulous for breakfast!
ReplyDeleteCan this me made the day before and cooked the next day?
ReplyDeleteYes - you can even freeze it for later.
