Step 1

Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.

Step 2

If adding sour cream, mix thoroughly with the salt, pepper and nutmeg. If not adding sour cream, beat the eggs adding the spices and beat well.

Step 3

Add milk ( can also use Half & Half or mix of both) to egg mixture and blend in well.

Step 4

Place pie crust in 9” pie dish and pour milk and egg mixture (optional to place pie shell in the oven for 1 min or so. Remove from the oven and pour liquid mix into it. Mix toppings ahead of time and spread throughout the pie shell. Spread the shredded cheese over mixture. Once the cheese is in, gently submerge it into the mix. Place in the oven.

Step 5

Bake for 45 minutes at 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Optional to switch to Broil setting for 1 minute. Center of pie is fully cooked if knife comes out clean. (45 min. for Boone)

Step 6

TOPPINGS: peppers, spinach (drained of any water), peas and diced ham, mushrooms (also drained of any water), smoked salmon, olives, sun dried tomatoes. If making a veggie quiche, I add no more than 2 veggies. If adding any protein, I keep to the 2 veggie max but will sometimes make it 1 veggie and 1 protein.

Step 7

CHEESE: Can use mozzarella as well as Swiss. I’ve used a mixture of cheeses such as gruyere/mozzarella or Colby jack/mozzarella/Gouda. The 1 1/4 cup of cheese can be any mix you want.

Step 8

PIE CRUST: I use Pillsbury
