Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups shredded Swiss cheese
  • 4 teaspoons all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup cooked ham, diced
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground dry mustard
  • 1 (9 inch) unbaked pie crust
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, for garnish
  • 2 tablespoons chopped pimento peppers, garnish

Method

  • In medium bowl, toss 4 teaspoons flour with the grated cheese. Sprinkle mixture into the pie shell. On top of cheese, sprinkle 1/2 cup of diced ham.
  • In medium bowl, combine eggs, milk or cream, and then add salt and mustard powder. Beat until smooth and pour over cheese and ham.
  • Put piece of plastic wrap large enough to overlap sides over top of quiche, then a piece of foil, and seal well around the edges. (plastic keeps the foil from sticking to the food). Place prepared quiche in freezer.
  • When ready to prepare, preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C.) Remove foil and plastic wrap. Put foil around edge of crust to protect it.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 60 minutes, or until filling is set and crust is golden brown. Garnish with parsley and pimiento if desired
