Mini Sausage Quiches [UPDATED]
Published 11:41am Friday, February 1, 2013 Updated 11:46am Friday, February 1, 2013I had the pleasure of spending Christmas Eve at the home of some dear friends – Linette and Dan Hanson. Besides some delicious homemade lasagna – Linette had made these great little mini quiches. They were both delicious and cute! Thanks for letting me shoot a photo and sharing the recipe, Linette!
Which reminds me – this food blog is by no means “exclusive”. If you make some great food – it doesn’t have to be fancy or hard – simply shoot a photo and send it along with a recipe to me. I’ll post for you! Be sure to include a few lines about the recipe and anything special! You can send to me at connie.knapp@fergusfallsjournal.com.
