Introduction

This Best Western Omelette Quiche combines all the classic flavors of a hearty breakfast in one delicious pie.

The image shows a close-up of a slice of quiche on a white plate, placed on a white marbled texture surface. The quiche has three main visible layers: a light golden brown crust on the bottom and edge, a creamy, pale yellow filling in the middle with small bits of pink ham and green spinach, and a top layer of golden melted cheese with browned spots and small pieces of crispy bacon. Fresh green parsley leaves are sprinkled on top and a few are on the plate near the quiche slice. The crust edge is fluted and the slice is cut cleanly, revealing the soft filling inside.

Ingredients

1 pie crust (store-bought or homemade)
6 large eggs

1 cup whole milk
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1 cup cooked ham, diced
½ cup diced bell peppers (any color)

¼ cup finely chopped onion
1 cup fresh or frozen spinach (thawed and drained)
½ teaspoon salt

¼ teaspoon black pepper
½ teaspoon paprika (optional)

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and place the pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish.

Step 2: In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the chopped onion and bell peppers in a small amount of oil until they soften, about 5 minutes. Add the spinach and cook for 2 more minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Step 3: In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, whole milk, salt, black pepper, and paprika until well combined. Stir in the cooked ham, sautéed vegetables, and shredded cheddar cheese.
Step 4: Pour the egg mixture into the prepared pie crust, spreading it evenly.

Step 5: Bake the quiche in the preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is lightly golden.
Step 6: Let the quiche cool for about 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature, garnished with fresh herbs if desired.

Tips & Variations

Use different cheese varieties like Swiss or mozzarella for a unique flavor.

Add mushrooms or tomatoes to the vegetable mix for extra texture and taste.
For a crustless version, pour the filling directly into a greased pie dish and adjust baking time accordingly.
Make the quiche a day ahead to let the flavors meld; it reheats beautifully.

Storage

Store leftover quiche in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat slices in the microwave or in a low oven until warmed through. You can also freeze the quiche for up to 1 month; thaw overnight in the refrigerator before reheating.
