Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground pork sausage
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 1 medium Yellow onion, finely chopped
- 1 medium Red bell pepper, finely diced
- 2 cups Fresh spinach, chopped
- 6 large Eggs
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 1 cup Shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 cup Shredded pepper jack cheese
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Freshly cracked black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Hot sauce (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley
- Nonstick cooking spray
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly spray a 9x13-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage, breaking it into crumbles, until browned and fully cooked. Transfer the cooked sausage to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess grease.
In the same skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and red bell pepper, cooking until softened, about 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in the chopped spinach and cook for another 2 minutes until wilted. Remove the skillet from heat and set the vegetables aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, flour, baking powder, salt, black pepper, and hot sauce if using. Whisk until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Stir the cooked sausage, sautéed vegetables, shredded cheddar cheese, shredded pepper jack cheese, and chopped parsley into the egg mixture. Mix well to evenly distribute the ingredients.
Pour the mixture into the prepared baking dish, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
Bake the quiche in the preheated oven for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the top is golden and the center is set. A knife inserted into the center should come out clean.
Remove the dish from the oven and let it cool for about 10 minutes.
Slice the quiche into 12 squares and serve warm. Optionally, garnish with additional parsley or a dash of hot sauce.
