Easy Sausage Quiche

I love eating breakfast for dinner or lunch. And this Sausage Quiche is super easy to make and ready in less than 1 hour. As long as you have enough eggs in the fridge, you should have just about everything you need on hand.

This quiche recipe is also very versatile. You can substitute the sausage for bacon if you want. Use a bell pepper instead of the green chilies and even use whatever kind of cheese you have on hand.

Depending on what type of pie crust you use for this recipe, you might have to prepare it differently than what I indicate below. Always prepare the pie crust according to the directions on the package. Most will indicate different methods for pies and quiches.

Serve this delicious sausage quiche with your topping of choice. My mom likes to put ketchup on hers while the wife and I prefer a little salsa and sour cream.
