Ham Quiche
1 pastry crust (premade, like Pillsbury, warmed to room temp.)4 beaten eggs
1 1/2 c half and half, light cream or milk (I use skim milk)
1/4 c sliced green onions
1/4 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper
Dash ground nutmeg
3/4 c chopped cooked ham (It's absolutely awesome if you get the "top shelf" ham, it's Deitz & Watson in the house!)
1 1/2 c shredded swiss cheese
1 tbsp all purpose flour
Directions
1. Prepare and roll out pastry crust. Line a 9 in pie plate with pastry. Trim & crimp edges as desired. Line unpricked pastry with double thickness of foil. Bake in 450 degree oven for 8 minutes. Remove foil. Bake for 4-5 min or until pastry is set and dry. Remove from oven and reduce temp to 350.
2. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, stir together eggs, milk, green onions, salt, pepper and nutmeg. Stir in ham. In a small bowl, toss together the cheese and flour. Add to egg mixture and mix well.
3. Pour egg mixture into hot baked pastry shell. Bake in 350 oven for 35 to 40 min, or until inserted knife (near center) comes out clean. Let stand 10 min before serving.
