How to Make Cheesy Sausage Quiche

  1. Brown 1 lb sausage in a large skillet over medium heat, breaking it up with a spoon. Drain off excess grease and rinse with hot water to remove any remaining fat.
  2. Add 1 medium onion, thinly sliced, to the skillet with the sausage drippings. Cook until softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.
  3. Remove onions from skillet and blot with a paper towel to remove excess grease.
  4. In a large bowl, combine the cooked sausage, 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, 1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper, and 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour. Mix well to coat the sausage.
  5. Pour the sausage mixture into an unbaked 9-inch pie crust.
  6. Arrange the cooked onions evenly over the sausage mixture.
  7. In a separate bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs, 1 (12 ounce) can evaporated milk, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  8. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the quiche filling.
  9. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 35-40 minutes, or until the quiche is set and the crust is golden brown.
  10. Let the quiche cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
