TRISHA YEARWOOD'S COUNTRY QUICHE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• In a large skillet, cook the sausage until browned and cooked through, about 10 minutes. Then remove with a slotted spoon and reserve.
• In a large mixing bowl, whisk the baking powder, tomatoes and eggs together. Add the cooked sausage and the cheese to the egg mixture and stir together with a large spoon. Add salt and pepper and divide the mixture between both unbaked pie shells. Bake until the filling is set, about 30 minutes. Serve warm or at room temperature.
• Cook's Notes: To lighten up this quiche, use turkey sausage and egg substitute.
• Garth likes this quiche with cheese tortellini. If you add tortellini, cover with egg or the pasta will burn when the quiche bakes.

CHEESY QUICHE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Heavily spray a 12-cup nonstick muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the bacon and cook until crispy, about 6 minutes. Remove the bacon to a plate with a slotted spoon and pour 2 to 3 tablespoons of the bacon fat (see Cook's Note) into a large, heatproof bowl. To the bacon fat, add the crushed corn flakes and Cheddar. Stir the mixture together until it starts to clump. Press the mixture into the cups of the prepared muffin pan. Bake until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Remove and cool slightly on a baking rack in the pan.
• Return the skillet to medium-high heat and add the butter. Once the butter is melted, add the onions and cook until softened and starting to brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Sprinkle on the mustard, salt, paprika and pepper. Stir the collard greens into the onion mixture. Continue cooking the greens, stirring occasionally, until wilted, 5 to 6 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
• Whisk together the half-and-half and eggs, then stir in the greens. Pour some of the egg mixture into each crust in the pan to come about three-quarters of the way up and sprinkle on the bacon. Bake until the egg has set and doesn't jiggle, 15 to 20 minutes. Set the mini quiches on a baking rack for 10 minutes to cool. Serve warm or at room temperature.

HASH BROWN CRUSTED VEGGIE AND HAM QUICHE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• Pat the hash browns dry and add to a large bowl. Melt 3 tablespoons of the butter in a medium skillet and add to the hash browns with salt and pepper and mix well. Press the hash browns on the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan, pushing them gently into the corners. Bake until golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove the crust from the oven and reduce the oven temperature to 375 degrees F.
• Meanwhile, melt the remaining tablespoon butter in the same skillet over medium-high heat. Add the zucchini and bell pepper and cook, stirring, occasionally, until slightly softened, about 3 minutes.
• Spoon the vegetables into the crust and sprinkle with the ham and Cheddar.
• Whisk the cream, chives, cayenne and eggs together in a bowl with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Pour the mixture into the crust. Bake the quiche until golden brown and just set in the center, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Cool at least 10 minutes before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.
