Although this tart would make a special breakfast, brunch or even dinner for guests, you can enjoy it anytime because it's so easy. It's a puff pastry crust that's filled with yummy things like Italian sausage, 2 different cheeses, eggs and tomatoes.
8 oz. package refrigerated puff pastry dough
1 lb. Italian sausage links, casings discarded
2 large tomatoes, diced
2 T. chopped fresh basil
1 clove garlic, minced
2 T. shredded Parmesan cheese
1/4 c. shredded Cheddar cheese
3 T. milk
2 eggs
1/2 c. heavy cream
1/2 t. salt
1/4 t. black pepper
Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
Roll puff pastry dough onto floured surface into a circle approximately 13 inches wide; press into an 11 inch tart pan. Place a piece of aluminum foil that has been sprayed with non-stick cooking spray over dough; fill with dried beans or pie beads. Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until golden.
Meanwhile, cook sausage in a large skillet over medium-high heat, breaking up as it cooks, until sausage is no longer pink, about 7 minutes. Discard grease. Transfer sausage to large bowl; add tomatoes, garlic, basil, pepper, salt and cheese.
In another bowl, whisk together eggs, cream and milk. Combine both mixtures; mix well. Pour into the baked shell; bake for 15 minutes at 425 degrees; reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees; bake 10-12 minutes or until egg mixture is set and golden.
Remove from oven. Cool 5-10 minutes before cutting.
4-6 servings.
