I love quiche. All types and varieties of quiche. It was also one of my all time favorite foods, my comfort food, and the one food I so deeply miss when I started eating Paleo. The usual quiche that I made was somewhat healthy. It was made with a whole- wheat crust, light cheese, and low-fat milk. Three ingredients that are out of the question when eating Paleo and Whole30.
I started to experiment and making some frittatas, crustless quiches. However, I still missed the crust. I didn’t miss the creaminess of the cheese. It was the crust that I most missed. Then it hit me! I could use sausage as the crust. This Sausage Crusted Spinach Quiche recipe creation was born, and it hit the jackpot! Something about the combination of sausage & spinach that makes you not even miss the crust. Check it out!
Delish! Breakfast, brunch, or anytime recipe. It’s a super easy recipe. It can be made ahead of time. This Sausage Crusted Spinach Quiche also stores well.

Excited to make this in the morning!
Quick question- what do you mean by “uncover” in the last step before increasing the heat? What was used to cover while cooking?
