Preparation:
In a medium fry pan saute crumbled sausage. Drain and set aside. In small bowl beat eggs and whipping cream. Use a buscuit cutter to cut wonton wrappers. Spray mini muffin pans with non-stick spray. Press cut wonton wrappers into pans. Sprinkle some sausage and cheese into bottom of each wonton shell. (Note: you can use all jack cheese, or cheddar cheese, or a combination of both.) Sprinkle a few dried minced onions over sausage and cheese.
Pour egg and cream mixture over all, filling just to the top of each cup. Sprinkle with paprika. Bake in 325 degree oven for 15-20 minutes. Mini Quiches are done when knife inserted in center comes out clean. Makes 36 appetizers.
To freeze, place on rack to cool. Place on cookie sheet and flash freeze. When frozen lay quiche in freezer bags and stack in freezer. To serve, heat frozen quiche 5-8 minutes in 325 degree oven and serve hot, warm, or at room temperature.
Note: Wonton can be difficult to cut. Press down hard, tear away outside excess. Also helps to divide sausage and cheese into thirds for three 12-cup pans. These are tried and true and very good -- they are usually one of the first appetizers to disappear at a party, and it's a great recipe to have on hand because you can fix these ahead and reheat when ready to serve.
