How to Make Italian Sausage Broccoli Quiche

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  3. Add 1 pound Italian sausage (removed from casings), 2 cloves minced garlic, and 1/2 cup chopped onion. Cook, breaking up the sausage with a spoon, until browned, about 8-10 minutes.
  4. Remove sausage mixture from skillet and set aside to cool slightly. Once cooled, roughly chop the sausage into smaller pieces.
  5. In a 9-inch pie dish, arrange the cooked sausage mixture evenly in the bottom.
  6. Add 2 cups chopped broccoli florets over the sausage.
  7. Sprinkle 3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese over the broccoli.
  8. In a medium bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs, 1 cup half-and-half, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  9. Pour the egg mixture gently and evenly over the sausage and broccoli. Be careful not to overfill the crust.
  10. Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 cup mozzarella cheese over the top.
  11. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the quiche is set and the crust is golden brown. Let cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
