1 Tablespoon dry mustard powder


1 Tablespoon Worcestershire sauce


1/8 teaspoon garlic salt

Healthy Ham Quiche





Ingredients


1 cup low-fat silken tofu


1 cup low-fat vanilla soy milk


1 cup liquid egg product


3/4 cup nonfat ricotta cheese


One 4-ounce can of mushrooms


One 10-ounce bag no-fat shredded mozzarella cheese


1 medium red bell pepper


1 medium yellow or green pepper


2 very mild jalapeno peppers (2/3 of a small can of Ortega roasted mild chilis)


1 to 1-1/2 cup cubed or ground ham (may substitute 3/4 cup crumbled bacon or sausage)


1/2 to 1 teaspoon hot curry


1 Tablespoon chopped onions


1 teaspoon granulated steak seasoning


1/4 teaspoon garlic salt


1/2 teaspoon cilantro


2 baked, cooled pie crusts


Blend the first 4 ingredients and the spices in blender. Chop peppers and ham in a food processor until the size of small peas. Drain in colander a few minutes. In the pie crusts, distribute the shredded cheese, mushrooms, ham, and peppers. Pour liquid from blender over it.





Bake about 45 minutes at 350 degrees until knife inserted into pie comes out clean. Let set at least 15 minutes, then cut in wedges and serve. May be reheated in microwave for late-comers. Makes 2 pies.





Hints: If you use frozen pre-made pie crusts, be sure to thaw first and poke holes around it before baking to prevent air bubbles; otherwise, it may come out soggy.





Substitutions: For those with a wheat allergy, try our corn meal substitute: 3-1/4 cups cold water, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon chili powder, and 1-3/4 cup corn meal (yellow or white). Cook over medium heat until quite thick and stiff, about 8 minutes. Press thick corn meal mixture in pie pan as a substitute for the pie crust.Does anyone have a good recipe for ham quiche?

HAM QUICHE





6 oz. pkg. pork flavor Stove Top stuffing mix


1 c. chopped cooked ham


1 c. shredded Swiss cheese


4 beaten eggs


1 sm. (5 1/3 oz.) can evaporated milk





Prepare stuffing mix according to directions on box. Press into quiche dish to form crust. Bake at 400 degrees for 10 minutes.


Combine meat and cheese. In another bowl beat together eggs, milk, 1/8 tsp. pepper and salt to taste. Sprinkle meat and cheese into hot crust. Pour egg mixture over meat and cheese. Lower oven to 350 degrees. Bake 30-35 minutes or until center is set. Allow to cool 10 minutes before serving.
Basic quiche: 6 large eggs, whisked in a bowl





Add 1 pint half and half, 1 teaspoon dry mustard, 1 teaspoon season salt, 1 tablespoon Worchestershire sauce. Whisk vigorously with the eggs. Set aside.





Lightly saute together 1 cup chopped ham, 1/4 cup chopped onions and 1/4 cup chopped green pepper in a small skillet. Saute until the mixture is slightly dry.





Spread the ham and vegetable mixture in the bottom of an unbaked 9 or 10 inch pie crust. Add 1/2 cup grated sharp cheddar and 1 cup grated Swiss cheese. Rewhisk the egg mixture lightly and gently pour it over the ham and cheese. Bake at 325 for about 45-50 minutes, or until set. Serve with sliced Roma tomatoes and steamed, buttered asparagus.





This basic egg/half and half ratio will make any kind of quiche. Just make sure that you cook the water out of mushrooms, ham, onions, etc. If not, the quiche will weep when you serve it.





This formula also makes a good custard pie if you add 1 cup sugar, 1/2 stick butter, and flavoring instead of the savory ingredients.
