This Crockpot Sausage Mediterranean Quiche is utterly delicious and so simple to throw together. Making a healthy and delicious breakfast or brunch is easy with this Crockpot Sausage Mediterranean Quiche!
I’ve officially joined the slow cooker obsessed!!! As a lover of all easy recipes, I don’t know why I haven’t explored the crockpot more. It does pretty much everything. Things go in as ingredients and come out as magic, delicious recipes. Now that I’m home every day, I’ve also become breakfast obsessed. When I was working full-time, I’m embarrassed to admit how many drive-thru Egg White Delights were consumed on my way to the office. Now that Scout and Dill are my only coworkers, we are eating healthier breakfasts but keeping them EASY. You’re going to want to try this Crockpot HEALTHY Sausage Mediterranean Quiche. Thrown together in minutes, and SUPER delicious. Like I said, obsessed.
I love how nothing has to be done ahead of time. You just whisk your ingredients, stir to combine, and let the slow cooker do the rest. It comes out fluffy, delicious, and perfect for breakfast or brunch. Or lunch…or dinner. It heats up well, but I don’t think you’ll have much left over, especially if making for a crowd! This is the perfect brunch to prepare for guests. Allows you to spend time with loved ones instead of slaving away, but still tastes like you slaved away. My kind of recipe!
I’m so excited to be working with Jones Dairy Farm on this recipe. I used their fully cooked sausage links. I chopped them before throwing them into the crockpot, and they were the perfect compliment to the Mediterranean flavors of the quiche. As I learn more and more about cooking, I care more and more about where my ingredients come from. I have to be honest, it’s not something I always thought about. Jones Dairy Farm is one of my favorite brands for so many reasons. They’ve been family owned since 1889. They are committed to the finest ingredients, not allowing anything artificial to go into their sausage recipes. You can taste the difference, and I’m honored to be working with them. You’ll see more of their delicious products around here in the next couple months. I haven’t found one yet that I didn’t LOVE. I hope you give them a try!
I feel so bad for Scout that she doesn’t get a delicious breakfast like this Crockpot Healthy Sausage Mediterranean Quiche.
Her dogfood really paled in comparison once she smelled what was in the crockpot. I might need to do another treat recipe for her soon. She really suffers! :)

Absolutely!
Can you make this without crust?
I’m famous (ha!) for cooking on road trips . . . and hauling a crock pot (which I rarely use at home). I tried my decades old Strata recipe as a test for our up coming trip and it worked great . . . but your recipe looks so divine! Don’t have time to experiment again. Do you use frozen or fresh spinach??? I use fresh in the Strata, but wilt it in a saute pan first. I’m happy to tote along a hot plate and pan if needed. It’d be nice to know what you use! Thanks!
Hey! I’m so sorry I haven’t tested it in the oven yet. I will update the recipe if I do though.
Hello! Does this recipe work in the oven? If so, what modifications, how long to bake in the oven? I don’t have a crock pot yet. Thank you.
That is so good to hear!!
One of my favorite go to recipes as of late. So easy and so delicious. I also feel good about putting it in my body since it is so healthy. Thanks for giving us a new meal to add into our rotation!
It helps create the “crust” for the quiche. I haven’t made this specific recipe any other way so I’m so sorry I’m not sure!
Can this recipe by made without the bisquick?
whoops, the site is called taste.com.au
We don’t have bisquick here in Australia. We do have similar recipes that are called Zucchini Slice, but those are oven baked. When doing similar recipes here in OZ I substitute a mix of flour and fat of some type (usually a healthy Olive oil for convenience and ease of use.) I generally substitute at the ratio of 1 to 3, eg a 1/4 cup of fat to 3/4 cup of self raising flour (self rising for you folks) . To go low fat cut the fat/oil to 1 fifth and up the flour to 4 fifths. Or leave the fat out all together and substitute just flour it still works. Similar recipes are on a great OZ food site called
The bisquick bakes up to create an awesome crust…bread crumbs wouldn’t quite do that or adhere the same way. Hope you love the recipe!
Would breadcrumbs be an adequate substitute for the he Bisquick? I don’t usually have mixes on hand.
I’m wondering what the biscuit Ingrid. Is
Hey Jennifer, yes I used cooked sausage links, chopped. About a cup and a half. You could definitely use ham!! MMM
A few questions. Is the sausage cooked or uncooked when you put it in? How much should use? Can diced ham be used instead of sausage? If so, how much would you recommend using?
Yes definitely more of a quiche. I didn’t realize you were looking for gluten-free, so glad you found that they offer that! Hope you love the recipe, thanks for saying hi!!
Oh, I see. It’s more of a quiche not casserole. After commenting I did find that Bisquick makes a Gluten Free mix. I may try that. Just have some sensitive tummies around here.
Hi Elizabeth, The bisquick adds a type of crust to the quiche. It works pretty well. I haven’t tried it without it, so I’m not sure how it would work, but it would most likely be fine. Hope you love the recipe!
Hello, Most recipes for crockpot don’t have a “bread”. What purpose does the Bisquick have in the recipe? Just curious so I can find a substitute or even the opportunity to omit it if I am able. This recipe does look quite delicious, and I would love to feed it to my family.
I actually don’t have an app right now to calculate nutrition info at this time. It’s something I’m thinking about adding if I can find the right app. Problem is they’re all over the place and it’s hard to know for sure if they’re accurate. I apologize that I don’t have it implemented right now!
Any idea what the nutrition facts are for this quiche? It’s in my slow cooker now and I’m wondering how many servings it is and how many calories. Thanks!
Hi! I have never made a larger batch but I think it would work out just fine. Hope you and your family have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Hi Holly
Did you ever try the larger batch? I want to do the same tomorrow for an early thanksgiving breakfast but need much more than 6 servings!
This comment totally made my day!! So glad you loved it, and love the addition of hot sauce. My husband would like that, I’ll have to do that next time. Thanks for stopping by and letting me know everyone enjoyed it! (and how fun that you have a post-Halloween brunch!)
This was a huge hit about our post-Halloween brunch. Everyone asked for the recipe after. Super easy and delicious. We added hot sauce on our plates to give it a kick. Thank you!
No problem Janna, thanks so much for stopping by!
Sorry, never mind I just saw it!
Are the sausage links precooked or do they cook with the egfgs?
Hi Holly! I’ve never made it in bigger quantities…I know you could bake it but I’m not sure on the exact time, etc. Hope it works out well for you!! Thanks so much for stopping by!
This looks fantastic! Any ideas on tripling this recipe? How would it be best to cook en masse?
Thanks Hap!
Oops sorry that’s Betty Crocker, not Pillsbury, Bisquick recipe. :)
Great classic Pillsbury Company Bisquick box recipe.
Aren’t crockpots the BEST!!! Wow your grandkids sound so smart! So awesome they know all that at such a young age. It took me a lot longer to learn! I’m still learning actually. Thanks so much for stopping by!
You had me at crock pot!!! I always cook Christmas Breakfast and when I saw the recipe for the Mediterranean Quiche, I knew that this was for me. But after reading the recipe, I know that this is more than Christmas morning. My grandsons eat very healthy. They are 6 and 7 and the oldest one told me one day while we were looking for somewhere to have lunch. ” Grandmommy, we can’t eat at McDonald’s, their food has cholesterol in it and that is bad for your heart.” I said,” ok. ! Tell me if you see one that Is is good for you.” He had learned this at home from his parents. So,most of your recipes, except alcoholic are perfect for them and especially for my husband and me.I can’t wait to try this mouth watering recipe.
Thanks Andrea! Oh my gosh, I kept McDonalds in business for a few years :) Hope you love the recipe! Glad to have someone to share in my Egg White Delight addiction! haha
Looks amazing! I’m also ashamed of my number of Egg White Delights on the way to the office… LOL. This recipe may be my first attempt at breakfast in the crockpot! Pinning :)
Thank you!!! Means SO much coming from you!! Love your blog :)
This quiche looks fantastic! Perfect for Sunday brunch.
This was my first time and now I’m hooked!! Thanks for stopping by lady :)
Oh we love making egg dishes in the slow cooker! We did for Thanksgiving morning actually it was such a time saver! Really digging the flavors here though….I am a sucker for anything with sun dried tomatoes!
I need to use mine more too Patricia! It’s crazy the stuff that can be made! Thanks so much for stopping by!!
I sooo need to use my slow cooker more! I never would have imagined a quiche could be made in the slow cooker! This sounds really yummy (and I love the photo with your Scout looking on)!
Thanks Beth!! Yes, I had a serious addiction to Erickson Wood Works!! This is the Whiskey Brown Barnwood. Its one of my favorites!
Thanks so much Julie!!!
I love waking up to the aroma of breakfast in the slow cooker! This looks so simple. Pinned!
Becky, your brown wood board is totally gorgeous! Erickson Wood Works? What’s the name? This quiche is definitely something we’d devour!
