Spinach and Sausage Quiche




4 whole eggs
4 ounces Turkey kielbasa
1 cup fat free half and half
1 quarter teaspoon salt and pepper
1/2 cup frozen cut spinach
1 quarter cup finely diced onion
3/4 cup cheddar, shredded
1 9-inch regular frozen pie shell.



Step One:
Remove the pie shell from the freezer. Preheat oven to 375. Dice the kielbasa. Heat a non-stick skillet over  medium-high heat. Add the kielbasa and until done stirring occasionally. Remove the sausage from the pan add a spray of cooking spray and cook the onions until softened.







Step Two:
Whip the eggs in a large bowl, and then whip in the half and half. Mix in the  kielbasa,  salt and pepper, onions spinach, and cheese. 









Step Three:
Using a fork, poke holes in the bottom of the pie shell. Pour the mixture into the pie shell, and tap the filled pie shell a few times to release any bubbles. So that the edge of the pies shells does not scorch either cover the edge of the pie shell with aluminum foil or use a pie shell cover. Place the quiche on a cookie sheet on the center rack in the oven and bake 30-35 minutes, or until the top is browned.






Step Four:
During baking the quiche will rise. This is normal and it will fall back down while cooling.  Once the quiche is browned, remove it from the oven. Allow to cool for 20 to 30 minutes before serving.
