A delicious mixture of eggs, vegetables and sausage. This dish can be prepared for any time of day - we've enjoyed it for breakfast and for dinner, so it's probably just as satisfying for lunch! I have also presented this dish at employee gatherings and no matter how much I bring, it ALWAYS disappears!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375º F;.
- 9” Pie pan, quiche dish or similar baking vessel at least 1” deep.
- • Sauté the chorizo links, in their wrappers, over medium-low heat. While the sausage is cooking, prepare the eggs, butter and water by whisking thoroughly then gently stir in the spinach leaves. If using shredded cheddar, measure the amount needed. If using packaged, block cheddar, slice the cheese into 1"x1/8" squares; dice the tomato into 1/2"x1/2" pieces. Set these items aside until assembly time.
- • Remove the chorizos from heat, cover the chorizo with a layer or two of paper towels and carefully pierce the casing releasing the rendered fat, squeezing gently, if necessary. When piercing the sausage casing, PIERCE THE LINK IN ITS SIDE as the red oil rendered during sautéing can squirt out unexpectedly (AND YOU COULD END UP WITH A RED STRIPED AND POLKA-DOTTED REFRIGERATOR!). This is because a closed casing chorizo becomes pressurized during sautéing, so the side-piercing is necessary. TAKE CARE – THE SAUSAGE AND OIL ARE VERY, VERY HOT. NOTE: You can remove the casing or cut slits or poke holes in the casing before cooking, but the sausage will soak up more oil and require longer draining.
- • Cut the remaining casing down the length of the sausage and scoop out the chorizo meat placing it on paper towels to absorb additional fat.
- • Spray the baking dish with butter flavored or olive oil cooking spray, then pour in the beaten egg-spinach mixture.
- • Evenly distribute the tomato and (optional) ½ of the onion pieces throughout the eggs.
- • Sprinkle the shredded cheddar or dot the cheddar cheese pieces across the top in a pleasing pattern, then sprinkle on the parmesan cheese and remaining (optional) onion.
- • Lightly spray the top of the quiche with butter flavored or olive oil spray.
- • Sprinkle a few grains of the seasoned salt and/or pepper over the quiche.
- • Bake for 20 – 25 minutes or until cheese is a fantastic brown!
- • Remove the quiche from the oven and allow to rest about 5 minutes until completely set.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a medium frying pan over a high heat, and fry the chorizo for 4-5 mins until crisp. Transfer to a plate lined with kitchen paper using a slotted spoon, and set aside to cool. Set the pan with the fat aside, and leave to cool. For the pastry, put the flour, 1/2 tsp salt, the paprika, cayenne pepper, cooled chorizo fat and the butter in the bowl of a large food processor and blitz until the mixture looks like coarse breadcrumbs. Gradually pulse in 4 tbsp cold water until it comes together into a dough. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface, and knead gently until smooth. Wrap the dough and chill for at least 10 mins. Will keep chilled for up to three days.
- Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Roll the chilled pastry out on a floured work surface to the thickness of a 50p coin then lift it into a 23cm loose-bottomed tart tin, leaving an overhang. Prick the base all over with a fork, line with baking parchment, then fill with baking beans. Transfer to a baking sheet and bake for 15 mins. Remove the parchment and beans, then bake for 15-20 mins more until golden and crisp. Trim away the pastry that is overhanging using a serrated knife.
- Meanwhile, whisk the eggs, crème fraîche and cream together, season, then stir in the cheese and cooled chorizo. Pour into the pastry case and bake for 25-30 mins until the filling is just set. Leave to cool in the tin, then remove from the tin and slice. Will keep in the fridge for up to three days.
