Hearty Sausage Mini Quiche

This recipe comes from the April 2014 issue of All You magazine. It's actually an advertisement from Jimmy Dean sausage, something I use when I make Breakfast Pizza. The little mini bites just look yummy and would be perfect for a brunch or for those of us who prefer breakfast at supper.

The cook's tip suggests using parchment paper for cupcake liners.

Hearty Sausage Mini Quiche

1 pkg Jimmy Dean Regular Flavor Pork Sausage Roll
1cup fresh chopped mushrooms
1/2 cup chopped green bell pepper
10 eggs
1/4 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 cup (4 oz.) shredded cheddar cheese
1/2 cup sliced green onions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Cook sausage, mushrooms and bell pepper in large skillet over medium-high heat 8 to 10 minutes or until sausage is thoroughly cooked, stirring frequently. Drain.

Beat eggs, milk and black pepper in large bowl with wire whisk until well-blended. Stir in sausage mixture, cheese and green onion. Line cupcake pans with 16 baking liners. Spoon mixture evenly into baking cups.

Bake 18 to 22 minutes or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.
