Red Pepper Quiche

A few weeks ago, Lara posted this delicious looking quiche made by her sister.. and I've been drooling over it ever since. it's been on our menu numerous times since she posted it, but only now nearly 2 months later, did I get around to making it. And, I have to ask myself.... why did you wait so long?!



Thanks, Lara, for inspiring me to make a yummy brunch!

Red Pepper Quiche - Inspired by Lara @ Recipe Shoebox

1 package crescent rolls*
1/2 tsp. basil
1 medium red bell pepper, diced
1/4 lb. breakfast sausage, sliced
2 T minced onion
1/2 C sour cream
2 eggs
1 C extra sharp cheddar cheese

Spread the crescent rolls into a 9-inch pie plate and press in to cover the bottom and sides. Sprinkle with basil.



Preheat your oven to 350.

Meanwhile, saute the breakfast sausages until browned. Then, slice into small segments. Using the same pan, saute the red peppers until crisp-tender.



Then, add in the sausage and minced onion.



In a small bowl, mix together the eggs, sour cream and pepper.



Add in 1/4 C cheese.



Place the pepper/sausage mix into the pie plate.



Pour the egg mixture over the top.



Sprinkle the top with the remaining cheese.



Bake at 350 for ~40 minutes, until the center is set and the cheese is lightly browned.



Serve warm.
