Breakfast Quiche

Fishing, hunting or just taking a walk through the woods – if it’s related to the outdoors, O’Neill Williams will usually be found there. “I’ve been fortunate for over thirty years to be able to share my passion for the outdoor lifestyle on television and radio. The highlight of these shows are always the ‘Outdoor Cooking on the Big Green Egg’ segments, where we cook the best wild game recipes you’ve ever tasted. Remember, “If you’re too busy to go fishing or hunting, you’re just too busy!”

In a skillet over medium heat, brown the sausage in butter for 4 to 6 minutes. Add mushrooms and sauté for 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat and cool slightly.

In a medium bowl, blend the 6 eggs, salt, black pepper, and heavy cream. Set aside. In a large mixing bowl, combine sour cream, ricotta and cream cheese until mixed thoroughly.
