HAM 'N' CHEESE QUICHE
When I was expecting our daughter, I made and froze this cheesy ham quiche as well as several other dishes. After her birth, it was nice to have dinner in the freezer when my husband and I were too tired to cook. -Christena Palmer, Green River, Wyoming

HAM-AND-SWISS QUICHE
A tender pie crust plus a savory filling add up to a delicious and classic ham-and-cheese quiche for brunch. The key to this gluten-free recipe is the easy-to-work-with dough. Since there's no gluten, which leads to toughness if the dough is overworked, you can mix and roll without worry.

HAM AND SWISS CHEESE QUICHE
This quiche has been a family favorite for many years. Very tasty and fairly easy to make. It has a mild flavor and even my kids liked it (if they couldn't see the green pepper.) You can use left over ham or as I often do ham lunch meat. This does make a very full pie crust.

Steps:
- Toss together the flour and swiss cheese.
- Mix in the half and half.
- Slightly beat the eggs, with a fork, and stir into mixture.
- Mix in the ham, onion, and green pepper.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Pour into a large pie crust.
- Bake at 375 degrees for 50-60 minutes.
Tips:
- For a crispy crust, use a combination of butter and oil in the pie crust. The butter will add flavor, while the oil will help the crust brown.
- To prevent the quiche from becoming too brown, cover it with aluminum foil during the last 10-15 minutes of baking.
- Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor. This includes using real butter, fresh eggs, and good quality cheese.
- Don't overbeat the eggs. Overbeaten eggs can make the quiche tough.
- Let the quiche cool slightly before slicing and serving. This will help it hold its shape.
Conclusion:
Ham and Swiss cheese quiche is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is also a great way to use up leftover ham and cheese. With its creamy filling and crispy crust, this quiche is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
