MINI MUSHROOM-AND-SAUSAGE QUICHES
Steps:
- Position rack in center of oven; preheat to 325°F. Coat a nonstick muffin tin generously with cooking spray (see Tip). Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add sausage and cook until golden brown, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer to a bowl to cool. Add oil to the pan. Add mushrooms and cook, stirring often, until golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer mushrooms to the bowl with the sausage. Let cool for 5 minutes. Stir in scallions, cheese and pepper. Whisk eggs, egg whites and milk in a medium bowl. Divide the egg mixture evenly among the prepared muffin cups. Sprinkle a heaping tablespoon of the sausage mixture into each cup. Bake until the tops are just beginning to brown, 25 minutes. Let cool on a wire rack for 5 minutes. Place a rack on top of the pan, flip it over and turn the quiches out onto the rack. Turn upright and let cool completely. A good-quality nonstick muffin tin works best for this recipe. If you don't have one, line a regular muffin tin with foil baking cups
Tips:
- For a vegetarian option, omit the sausage and add more mushrooms or roasted vegetables.
- If you don't have mini quiche pans, you can use a regular muffin tin.
- To make sure the quiche is cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the quiche is done.
- Quiches can be served hot or cold, so they're perfect for a quick and easy breakfast, lunch, or dinner.
Conclusion:
Mini mushroom and sausage quiches are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. They're easy to make and can be customized to your liking. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give these quiches a try!
