    Ingredients

    • 1 medium red bell pepper

    • 226 grams sausage

    • 4 large eggs

    • 240 ml milk

    • 120 grams grated cheese

    • 1 9-inch pie crust

    • 0.5 teaspoon salt

    • 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

    Directions

    • Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Roast the red pepper directly over the gas burner or under the broiler until blackened all over, then peel, seed, and dice.
    • In a skillet, cook sausage over medium heat until browned and cooked through. Remove from heat and drain excess fat, if necessary.
    • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, salt, and black pepper until well combined and slightly frothy.
    • Spread the sausage and diced red peppers evenly over the bottom of the pie crust, followed by the grated cheese.
    • Pour the egg mixture over the sausage and vegetables in the pie crust, ensuring everything is evenly distributed.
    • Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes or until the quiche is set in the center and the top is lightly golden.
    • Allow the quiche to cool for at least 10 minutes before slicing and serving warm for best flavor and texture.

    Tip of the Day

    “Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

    Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!

Research on produce nutritional quality consistently finds that the gap between peak-season and out-of-season nutritional content is widest in the summer vegetables and fruits — tomatoes, peaches, corn, peppers — that define the late summer abundance. Eating these foods now, and preserving them in forms that retain their nutritional value, is both a culinary and nutritional investment in the months that follow.
