This recipe originally came from my friend, Sarah S., and it is a winner.  I made it for my little sister’s baby shower and it was a HIT!  I didn’t even get a picture of it before it was completely gone!  So, next time I make it I will be sure to get a quick picture and add one into this post for you.  Be sure to read all the way to the Food for Thought for ways to make this recipe your own.  Quiche is any easy recipe to adapt to your family’s personal taste preferences!  And, although I made this for a brunch, quiche is also a great main dish for dinner. Have it with a salad and some good bread and you have a satisfying meal!

Ham and Swiss Quiche

1 pie crust
1/2 c. mayo
2 Tbsp. flour
1/2 c. half & half
8 oz. grated swiss cheese
1 c. diced ham (I used turkey ham – you can’t tell the difference)
1/4 c. green onion, sliced
2 eggs for standard pie pan, 3 for deep dish

Instructions:

Place the pie crust in the bottom of a pie pan (I lightly greased my pie pan). Place cheese, meat, and onion into the pie crust.

In a small bowl, combine mayo, flour, half & half, and eggs. Whisk well together and pour over the other ingredients.

Bake in a preheated oven for 350 degrees for 50 minutes or until cooked through.  Slice and serve hot.

Food for Thought: This is easy to bake up and then freeze as a whole.  To serve later, either bake until hot through as a whole pie or cut out a single slice and heat up in the microwave.  It makes for an easy single serve dinner that you can have ready in the freezer.

This is also an easy recipe for adding any veggies or meat you wish to add or remove from this recipe.  The egg mixture is really the base for anything you want to mix together or use up from your fridge.  That is the beauty of quiche – so easy and unlimited options of combinations!
