Bacon-Sausage Low-carb Quiche

6 strips of bacon, fried crisp
4 ounces (raw) Jimmy Dean sausage, crumbled and fried just until done
4 ounces provolone cheese, shredded
½ cup mixed red and yellow sweet peppers (3 oz.)
1/3 cup chopped onion
1 cup (8 oz.) heavy cream
3 eggs
½ teaspoon salt
Several shakes red pepper (cayenne)
Several shakes garlic powder

I baked this recipe 10-16-05 for the first time. I baked it in a 10 inch quiche dish.

Preheat oven to 425°F

Spray dish with butter flavor Pam. Sprinkle first five ingredients evenly in the bottom of dish. With a whisk, beat eggs slightly; add the seasonings and whisk a little more. Add the cream and whisk only until smooth and well blended. Pour gently over the ingredients in the dish.

Place in oven on a cookie sheet. Bake for 15 minutes at 425°F, then lower heat to 300°F, cover lightly with foil to prevent over browning, and continue to bake for 20 minutes or until a knife inserted in the middle comes out clean.

Review: Excellent! I won’t change a thing. I was afraid the provolone wouldn’t be as good as Swiss, but it was just right.

I gotta try this! Do you put the aluminum foil on at the beginning or halfway through cooking? It looks like you put it on halfway through baking... Great breakfast and brunch idea! Thanks for posting it!

Thanks for posting it!I put the foil on after the heat is reduced to 300 degrees during the last 20 minutes of baking.

Can you freeze it?I've never tried it, but I froze a breakfast casserole with a lot of the same ingredients and it was okay. The texture changed a bit, but was still good.
