Easy One-Dish Quiche

This recipe came to me years ago under the title "American Quiche."  But as I adapted it in various ways, I just came to think of it as my 'One-Dish Quiche.'  I think you'll love how quick, easy, and delicious it is!

Preheat oven to 325 degrees.  In a 9" pie plate mix together with a fork:

  • 1 1/2 c. flour (your choice, even Gluten-Free works well)
  • 1 1/2 T. sugar (or 1 packet stevia)
  • 1 tsp. salt
  • 1/2 c. oil
  • 2 T. milk

When well mixed, pat out evenly in the pie plate, bringing it up along the sides.

Cube and put in the pie shell:

  • 1 c. cheddar cheese
  • 3/4 c. ham or pre-cooked sausage

Mix together in a small bowl or blender and pour over all:

  • 4 eggs
  • 1 1/2 c. milk

Sprinkle top with dried parsley for garnish.  Bake for 45 minutes at 325 degrees or until done in center.  Let sit for 5 minutes, then cut in wedges and serve.

Note:  You may also add mushrooms, green onion, green chilies, chopped sauteed vegetables, etc.  Other good combinations are:

  • crab or imitation crab with Swiss cheese
  • canned asparagus spears and Swiss cheese
  • canned salmon with 1 tsp. dill in egg mixture
  • fried hamburger, green chilies, monterey jack cheese, serve with salsa on top
