Jalapeño Chicken Sausage, Mushroom, Smoked Black Pepper White Cheddar, and Tomato Potato Crusted Quiche

Jalapeño Chicken Sausage, Mushroom, Smoked Black Pepper White Cheddar, and Tomato Potato Crusted QuicheWhat a mouthful the title of this recipe is but I am telling you, it was FANTASTIC. I wanted to make a quick and easy dinner that would appeal to both me and my husband (my kids don’t eat eggs – ugh). I had some chicken jalapeño sausage, mushrooms, onions, tomatoes, and spinach as well as some smoked black pepper white cheddar cheese in the refrigerator so I thought they would make a quiche – I was right. I loved the combination of flavors and textures of the ingredients and the nice kick from the sausage and cheese. We both really, really loved this quiche. I plan on making it again and again.
