Mushroom Sausage Quiche

One of my all-time favorites. I make it all the time - usually the night before.

Ingredients:
1 pre-made pie crust
4 eggs
1 cup cream (the thicker the creamier, the thinner the lower calories. I tend to do 1/2 cup cream, 1/2 cup milk)
1/2  (16 oz) package sausage
1 cup mushrooms (fresh)
1/2 onion, chopped
1 cup swiss cheese (I also like to add a little cheddar to cut through the swiss flavor)
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp pepper
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1 tsp chives (fresh is best, or freeze dried)
1 tbsp oil


Directions
Heat oven to 350* 
Heat large skillet over medium heat. Add sausage, crumbled up. Cook until no longer pink.
In a separate large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add onion, and cook for 3 minutes. Add mushrooms, and cook until well sauteed.
Stir in cooked sausage, cook for 3 more minutes, mixing ingredients together.



Spread sausage mixture into prepared pie crust.

In a bowl, combine eggs, and cream, whisking until combined. Stir in cheese, salt, pepper, nutmeg and chives.
Pour egg mixture over sausage mixture.
Cook for 40 minutes.





Enjoy!
