Ham and Cheese Quiche Recipe

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Roll out your pie crust and fit it into a 9" pie pan, crimping the edges as desired.Line the pie crust with a large sheet of parchment paper, so the edges of the parchment come up along the sides of the pie crust. Fill the parchment paper with pie weights or dried beans, up to the top.

Step 2

Bake the pie crust for 10 to 12 minutes, until the crust edges turn a pale color. Carefully remove the pie crust from the oven. Remove the parchment paper by picking up each corner of the parchment and pulling straight up. Set pie weights or beans aside in a bowl to cool. Return the pie crust to the oven for an additional 5 minutes, until the base of the pie crust is pale in color also.

Step 3

Add the cheese, ham and potatoes to the warm pie crust and toss to combine.

Step 4

In a medium bowl whisk together the eggs and half and half until the mixture is a pale yellow, with no streaks of yolk in it. Mix in the Tastefully Simple seasonings and black pepper and pour over the quiche filling.

Step 5

Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until the center is no longer jiggly. Remove from oven and let cool slightly before slicing. Enjoy!
