How To Make heavenly quiche
-
Step 1Preheat oven to 425 degree F. In a bowl toss chicken, ham, asparagus and cheese. Place into unbaked pie shell. Whisk milk, eggs, and seasonings together. ( I use my blender, makes the quiche fluffy and light. ) Pour over mixture in pie shell. I sometimes add some grated cheese to the top, the last few minutes of baking. Bake for 15 minutes at 425 degrees. Reduce heat to 300 degrees and bake another 40-45 minutes or until knife inserted in middle comes out clean. Enjoy! - Last Step: Don't forget to share!
