How to Make Farmer's Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. In a large skillet, brown 1 lb of sausage over medium heat, breaking it up with a spoon, until cooked through (about 5-7 minutes).
  3. Add 1 medium chopped onion to the skillet and cook until softened and translucent (about 5 minutes).
  4. Drain off any excess grease from the skillet.
  5. Stir in 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, 2 cups broccoli florets, 1 cup cooked rice, 1 cup chopped tomatoes, and 1/2 cup sliced olives (if using). Mix well.
  6. Pour the sausage and vegetable mixture into a 9-inch deep-dish pie crust.
  7. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs, 1 cup heavy cream, 2 minced cloves of garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and 1 teaspoon dried thyme.
  8. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the sausage and vegetable filling in the pie crust.
  9. Bake for 10 minutes at 425°F (220°C).
  10. Reduce oven temperature to 400°F (200°C) and continue baking for 30-35 minutes, or until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown.
  11. Let cool for 10-15 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
