Ingredients

  • 1 9-inch frozen deep-dish pie shell
  • 1/2 lb of ground sage sausage
  • 3/4 cup dried cranberries
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese
  • 3 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 1 1/2 cups half-and-half

Preparation

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Let frozen pie shell stand at room temperature 10 minutes; do not prick shell. Bake 7 minutes. Remove from oven and set aside.
  2. Reduce oven temperature to 375°F. Crumble and cook sausage in large skillet over medium-high heat until browned. Remove from heat and drain off any drippings.
  3. Stir in cranberries. Sprinkle cheese on bottom of pie shell; top evenly with sausage mixture.
  4. Combine eggs and half-and-half in medium bowl; whisk until blended but not frothy. Pour egg mixture over sausage mixture in pie shell.
