I came up with this sausage and veggies hash brown quiche by tweaking a similar recipe from Simply Potatoes (one of my favorite products).

This isn’t “eggy” or custardy like some quiches; it is more casserole-like. If you like more eggs, just add one more to the liquid mixture. I suggest using a quiche pan or a 9 x 13 casserole dish instead of a pie plate, as this bakes more evenly when spread out.

I made this for my family of five, and everyone loved it. This would easily feed 8 or so, especially with sides. Great accompaniments to this would be fruit, muffins or pastries, and juice.

This would make a perfect Christmas morning breakfast. In fact, I am making one for my family, along with Croissant French Toast with Strawberry Syrup. I’ve made the French toast for years on Christmas morning; it is one of our favorite things:-)
