SAVORY HAM AND MUSHROOM QUICHE

This is a really wonderful treat, good for breakfast with muffins and fruit, or lunch or dinner with a nice green salad. I prefer making the shell-less mini quiches. They fit my husband's low-carb needs, and they reheat well in the oven or microwave, making them great quick breakfasts or snacks. They would also work well for a brunch buffet.

Time 35m

Yield 6-10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 prebaked sweet tart crust (optional)
1/8 lb deli ham, cut in 1/4 inch cubes (I prefer Boar's Head Sundried Tomato and Rosemary ham)
2 shallots, minced
3 ounces sliced baby portabella mushrooms
1 tablespoon olive oil
3 large eggs
1/2 cup whipping cream
1 -2 tablespoon Dijon mustard
salt and pepper
1/2 cup gruyere or 1/2 cup emmenthaler cheese (plus 1/3 extra if using quiche shell)

Steps:

  • Saute ham, shallots and mushrooms in oil until mushrooms are wilted and shallots are clear.
  • Beat eggs, add cream, salt and pepper.
  • (If not using tart shell, also add 1 T Dijon mustard.) Option 1: Quiche in tart shell.
  • Brush pre-baked tart shell with 2 T Dijon mustard.
  • Scatter over ham mixture, then cover with 1/2 c shredded cheese.
  • Pour over egg mixture, then scatter about 1/3 c shrdded cheese over the entire tart.
  • Bake at 375* for 25-30 minutes, or until custard sets.
  • Let sit before slicing.
  • Option 2: Mini Quiches without pastry shell.
  • Grease 10 muffin cups.
  • Divide ham mixture evenly among cups.
  • Divide half cup cheese evenly among cups.
  • Divide custard mixture evenly among cups.
  • Bake at 375 for 10-15 minutes or until custard is puffed up and browned on top.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality ham. A smoky, flavorful ham will give your quiche the best flavor.
  • Don't overcook the mushrooms. They should be cooked until they are soft and slightly browned, but not mushy.
  • Use a good quality cheese. A sharp cheddar or Gruyère cheese will give your quiche a rich, creamy flavor.
  • Don't overbake the quiche. The center should be set, but still slightly wobbly.
  • Let the quiche cool slightly before serving. This will help it to set and make it easier to slice.

Conclusion:

This savory ham and mushroom 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. With its creamy texture, smoky ham flavor, and earthy mushrooms, this quiche is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
