Ingredients:

  • 1 pound bulk pork sausage
  • 3 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 2 1/2 cups shredded Monterey Jack cheese, divided
  • 1 1/3 cups almond milk
  • 3 whole eggs
  • 3/4 cups biscuit/baking mix
  • 3/4 teaspoons rubbed sage
  • 1/4 teaspoons pepper

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9-inch pie dish or baking dish with cooking spray.
  2. In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bulk pork sausage until it is browned and cooked through, breaking it apart with a spoon as it cooks. Drain any excess grease from the skillet.
  3. Add the minced garlic to the skillet with the cooked sausage and sauté for an additional minute, allowing the garlic to become fragrant.
  4. Sprinkle 1 cup of shredded Monterey Jack cheese evenly over the bottom of the greased pie dish.
  5. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the almond milk, eggs, biscuit/baking mix, rubbed sage, and pepper until smooth and well combined.
  6. Stir the cooked sausage and garlic mixture into the egg mixture, ensuring that the sausage is evenly distributed throughout the batter.
  7. Pour the sausage and egg mixture into the prepared pie dish, spreading it out evenly.
  8. Sprinkle the remaining 1 1/2 cups of shredded Monterey Jack cheese over the top of the sausage mixture, creating a deliciously cheesy layer that will melt and bubble as the pie bakes.
  9. Bake the Monterey Sausage Pie in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center is set.
  10. Remove the pie from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
