Nutritious Ham and Cheese Quiche

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Nutritious Ham and Cheese Quiche.

1. Step 1

   Start by preheating your oven to a cozy 325°F (165°C).

2. Step 2

   While the oven warms up, gently unroll your pie crust and press it into a 9-inch pie dish, creating a lovely base for your quiche.

3. Step 3

   Set it aside for now, letting it relax.

4. Step 4

   Next, grab a skillet and heat a splash of olive oil over medium heat.

5. Step 5

   Toss in the chopped green onions and sauté them until they’re wilted and just beginning to brown, which should take about 2 to 3 minutes.

6. Step 6

   Once they’re fragrant and golden, remove the skillet from the heat.

7. Step 7

   Now, it’s time to layer your pie crust: spread the cubed ham evenly across the bottom, followed by the sautéed green onions, creating a delicious foundation.

8. Step 8

   In a mixing bowl, whisk together the fat-free egg substitute, fat-free evaporated milk, and shredded mozzarella cheese until everything is beautifully combined.

   Pour this creamy mixture over the ham and green onions, ensuring every bite will be packed with flavor.

10. Step 10

    For a finishing touch, sprinkle some grated Parmesan cheese on top, and if you like, add a few chives for a pop of color and taste.

11. Step 11

    Slide your quiche into the preheated oven and bake it for 20 minutes.

12. Step 12

    After that, turn up the heat to 350°F (175°C) and continue baking until the quiche is a gorgeous golden brown, which should take another 15 to 20 minutes.

13. Step 13

    Once it’s done, resist the urge to dive in right away! Let it rest for about 30 minutes to allow the eggs to set perfectly.

14. Step 14

    This little pause will make slicing and serving a breeze.
