sausage-cheddar-parmesan quiche

this year we're kicking off our thanksgiving with a hearty sausage quiche! this is just another variation on suzanne's quiche recipe, which you can find by going to the 'breakfast' link on the right sidebar under 'recipe index'. i made a few changes, so my two little picky eaters would join us for breakfast. although this was given to me as a vegetarian recipe you can get very creative with it as a vegetarian or a carnivore. today though, veggies were out with my two little ones, so i swapped out the two cups of veggie filling with some basic breakfast sausage that i cooked up slowly. and instead of sauteing garlic and onion, which would also be a no go...i used garlic powder and onion powder for seasoning on the sausage. i used one package of jimmy dean's regular flavor sausage in a tube. our favorite is maple flavor, but i thought regular would work better in the quiche.

 mixed and ready for the oven...

 nice and crisp on top...

 this shows how the bisquick makes the nice crust layer at the bottom...

warm, fluffy and gooey...sausage, egg and cheese...heaven!
