This cheese and sausage quiche is slightly sweet from the chopped apple. Prebaking the pastry, without the filling, ensures a crisp crust. I found this recipe in a Southern Living cookbook. We enjoyed it!

Use a good quality sausage. A breakfast sausage or mild Italian sausage works well.
If you don't have a pie crust, you can use a store-bought one. Just be sure to pre-bake it according to the package directions.
You can use any type of cheese you like. A sharp cheddar, mozzarella, or Gruyère are all good choices.
If you don't have fresh apples, you can use frozen or canned apples. Just be sure to thaw them before using.
To make the quiche ahead of time, cook it according to the recipe and then let it cool completely. Wrap the quiche tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 3 days. When ready to serve, reheat the quiche in a 350 degree Fahrenheit oven for about 30 minutes, or until heated through.
