this isn't my favorite quiche recipe. the addition of hashbrowns didn't quite do it for me, and i really prefer my quiches to have some kind of crust. it tastes more like an egg cassarole than a quiche. i added the red bell peppers, and followed the recipe as written. it didn't seem like there was enough cheese flavor to balance the sausage, onions, and bell peppers.

I have made mini-quiches several times for breakfast now. These are hardier with the potatoes than version I typically use. I didn't have frozen potatoes so I shredded a small yukon gold potatoe that I cooked with the onion in a small amount of oil. I then added mushrooms, cheddar cheese and the Jimmy Dean light sausage. While I typically can eat two muffins easily, I found one of these muffins filled me. For hearty appitites these are a great choice.
