Time 1h10m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 medium head cauliflower, cored and cut into florets
2 tablespoons olive oil, divided
5 eggs, divided
1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese, divided
1 tablespoon whole wheat panko bread crumbs
2 tablespoons snipped fresh chives
1 medium sweet red pepper, chopped
½ (14 ounce) package Hillshire Farm® Smoked Sausage, bias-sliced 1/2-inch thick
½ cup chopped onion
¼ cup heavy whipping cream
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon Chives

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Grease a 9-inch deep-dish pie plate; set aside.
  • Place cauliflower in a food processor in batches. Cover and pulse each batch until crumbly and mixture resembles the texture of rice.
  • In a very large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over medium-high heat. Add the cauliflower and cook, stirring occasionally, about 4 minutes, or until cauliflower is tender and starting to brown.
  • In a medium bowl, combine the cauliflower, 1 egg, 1/2 cup of the cheese, the panko, and 2 tablespoons chives. Press mixture onto the bottom and up the sides of the prepared pie plate.
  • In the same skillet, heat remaining 1 tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add sweet pepper and cook for 2 minutes, or until it begins to soften. Add sausage and onion and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until onion softens and sausage begins to brown. Spoon sausage mixture and remaining 1/2 cup cheese into cauliflower crust.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together remaining 4 eggs, whipping cream, and flour. Pour over sausage mixture in crust.
  • Bake, uncovered, for 30 to 40 minutes or until a knife inserted near center comes out clean. Let stand on a wire rack for 10 minutes before serving. Sprinkle with additional chives, if desired.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my quiche came out really dry. I think I might have overcooked it.

This quiche was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

The crust on this quiche was a little too thick for my liking. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This cauliflower-crusted quiche was a hit with my family! The crust was crispy and flavorful, and the filling was rich and creamy. I especially loved the addition of the smoked sausage, which gave the quiche a nice smoky flavor.
