Ham and Cheese Quiche

Ingredients

Pie crust (I buy a box which usually comes with two crusts)
ham
cheese
half pint whipping cream
1 large egg
oregano
salt
pepper

*Modifications: I sometimes sauté some onion and pepper and it adds a nice flavor. You could also use leftover turkey or chicken instead of ham, and also experiment with other ingredients like zucchini, corn, spinach, etc.


Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F

Prepare pie crust according to directions on the box (usually requires leaving out at room temperature for 15 minutes from the fridge). Place crust in glass Pyrex pie dish and press down to take the shape of the dish.

Cut up your ham (or chicken), cheese of choice, sauté onion/pepper if you would like. I don't really have measurements so you can just put how much you want, to fill up the pie crust.

In a medium bowl, whip up an egg and add half pint of whipping cream. Mix in oregano, salt, and pepper to taste.

Add the liquid to the pie and make sure the ham/cheese are covered.

Fold over the edges and place in the oven for about 25-30 minutes or until the edges are brown and the contents of the quiche are semi-firm.

Enjoy!
