TRACEY | THE KITCHEN IS MY PLAYGROUND

Steps:

• Bake sweet potatoes (in their skins) until tender, about 1 hour and 15 minutes at 350 degrees. Cool.
• Bring pie crust dough up to room temperature. Place each pie crust in the bottom and up the sides of an 8-inch or 9-inch fluted tart pan or round cake pan. Trim excess pie crust from the edges so that no dough goes above the top of the side of the pan. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of grated Parmesan cheese into the bottom of each pie crust.
• Heat olive oil in a saute pan over medium heat. Add thinly sliced onion and cook until tender over medium to medium-low heat, about 5 minutes. Add julienned sage and saute about 20 seconds. Remove from heat and set aside while you prepare the rest of the quiche filling.
• Remove the skins from the baked sweet potatoes. Chop the sweet potatoes into 1-inch cubes. Place the sweet potato chunks into the pie crusts, dividing evenly between the two pans. Place the onion and sage on top of the sweet potato chunks, dividing evenly between the two pans.
• Sprinkle 1/4 cup sausage crumbles and half of the goat cheese crumbles into each pan.
• Beat the whole eggs, egg yolks, cream, and half & half together. Pour half of the mixture into each pan.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place quiche into the 400 degree oven, and immediately reduce the heat to 375 degrees. Bake approximately 35-40 minutes until quiche is set.
• You can also cook the sweet potatoes in the microwave. Wrap them in a barely-moist paper towel and cook until tender, about 5-12 minutes depending on your microwave. I've tried it both ways and do prefer the oven-baked sweet potatoes as they are moister, more vibrantly colored, and more flavorful.
• The sweet potatoes and the onion/sage mixture could be prepared a day ahead and refrigerated until you're ready to assemble and bake your quiches. I suggest removing the sweet potatoes and onions/sage mixture from the refrigerator about an hour before assembling the quiches to let them come up in temperature a bit.
• If you don't have a fluted tart pan, I recommend using a 9-inch round cake pan instead of a pie plate. When baked in a pie plate, the edges of the pie crust that are fluted onto the rim of the pie plate tend to over bake. If you do use a pie plate, I recommend shielding the edges of the crust with foil partway through baking.
• Don't skip the fresh sage ... the flavor combination of fresh sage with the onions and sweet potato is absolutely fabulous!

SAUSAGE, POTATO AND ESCAROLE ROAST

Remove the sausages, then add the escarole to the pan with the potatoes, scraping up the potatoes. Toss to combine. Place the sausages on top of the escarole. Move the oven rack to the highest position and roast on the top rack until the escarole is wilted, about 5 minutes.
• Set the oven to broil and broil until the sausages are well browned and the escarole is slightly charred, about 1 minute, watching carefully to prevent them from burning. Transfer to a platter and serve.
