Sausage, egg, and cheese quiche

Satonya Field’s mother introduced her to this recipe years ago and Satonya has transformed it to suit her own palate. This is a great breakfast pleaser or brunch dish.

2 deep-dish pie shells

8 ounces of ground sausage

1 medium green bell pepper, diced

1 medium red bell pepper, diced

1 medium onion, diced

5 eggs

1 tsp. black pepper

1 tsp. garlic powder

1/2 tsp. of salt

1 tsp. smoked paprika

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Cook ground sausage, onion, and bell pepper together in a pan until the sausage is done.

Drain off excess grease.

Add one half of the cooked mixture to each pie shell.

In a bowl, whisk eggs, heavy cream and seasoning together and set aside.

Add 1 cup of cheese to each pie shell.

Put one half of the egg mixture into each pie shell.
