Christmas Quiche

Your Christmas guests have just left (not yet but this is so you’ll remember to save at least 1 – 1/2 pounds of your Christmas Ham)  and you’ve got an early morning skate coming up.  This quick Christmas Quiche is an easy way to have a good breakfast ready and reduce your leftovers.  This one is colorful, but it was consumed before I remembered to take a picture.

Serves 16 – 22 (2 quiches)

Ingredients

• 1 – 1/2 lb Christmas Ham, cubed
• 1/2 cup Green Peppers, chopped (2 or 3 peppers)
• 1/2 cup Red Peppers, chopped (2 or 3 peppers)
• 1 cup Cheddar Cheese, shredded
• 1 cup Swiss Cheese, shredded
• 2 Potato Crusts
• Base Quiche Mix

Preparation

I’m assuming that you’ve already made your Christmas Ham, so the only cooking to be done before hand is to prepare your Potato Crusts.  Follow these directions and you’ll be set.  The rest is just chopping up the meat and peppers.  Shred and mix the cheeses together and put everything away until ready for final assembly.

Final Assembly and Cooking

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.  Get your prepared potato crusts out and add a thin layer of shredded cheese, about 1/4 of the cheese you’ve prepared.  Then add the cubed ham and chopped peppers into the pans.  Prepare the base quiche mix and pour that gently over the mixture.  Then finish with the remaining cheese.  Transfer to the oven and bake for 30 – 40 minutes and remove when the cheese starts to brown.  Either serve or pack it up for the morning skate.
