Introduction
This quiche recipe is crustless, but has real eggs, full fat cheese and sausage. It's for special occasions. Sometimes, I prebake 2 gluten free Whole Foods pie crusts and fill them with this recipe. It's a delicious variation, but note that it changes the number of servings, fat and calories, and makes the dish a higher carb choice.

Ingredients
-
A 1 lb sausage roll (I like Tennessee Pride, once cooked and crumbled, will be about 10 oz)
Package of frozen broccoli, thawed
Pint of white mushrooms, sliced
Medium onion, chopped
1 cup shredded cheddar
Unsweetened almond milk (feel free to use regular milk, I'm sensitive to the lactose in milk, but I can tolerate cheese)
8 large eggs, beaten
Salt, pepper, hot sauce as desired
Directions
Preheat oven to 325 degrees
Brown the sausage, set aside. Save about 1 tbl of drippings to saute the onion. Once slightly tender, add the mushroom and continue to saute until tender. Add onion and mushroom to sausage and mix in large bowl with milk, cheese and broccoli. Add eggs last, as the other ingredients will be relatively cool by now. Season as you like and pour into a pie plate or 8x8 casserole, sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. Bake until a knife inserted in the center comes out mostly clean (no wet egg!) All ovens are different, and mine is terrible. It has taken over an hour. Keep an eye on it, it might take a normal oven 45 minutes.
Serving Size: Makes eight servings
