Ingredients

• 1 pre-made pie crust (9 inches)
• 1 cup cooked ham, diced
• 1 cup shredded cheese (such as Cheddar or Swiss)
• 4 large eggs
• 1 cup milk
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Optional additions: diced vegetables (such as bell peppers, onions, or spinach), herbs, or spices

Time

Preperation: Approximately 15 minutes

Baking: Approximately 40-45 minutes

Steps

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Roll out the pre-made pie crust and press it into a 9-inch pie dish, trimming any excess crust if needed. Prick the bottom of the crust with a fork to prevent it from puffing up during baking.
3. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
4. Sprinkle the diced ham and shredded cheese evenly over the bottom of the pie crust.
5. Optional: If you're adding any diced vegetables or additional seasonings, scatter them over the ham and cheese layer.
6. Pour the egg and milk mixture over the ham, cheese, and vegetables in the pie crust, ensuring an even distribution.
7. Place the quiche in the preheated oven and bake for approximately 40-45 minutes, or until the quiche is set in the center and the crust is golden brown.
8. Remove the quiche from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.
