Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 1 10-inch uncooked pie crust
  • 1 Tablespoon salted butter
  • 1/2 cup yellow onion (, chopped)
  • 1 cup ham (, cubed (use a ham steak or leftover ham))
  • 1/4 cup cooked bacon (, cut into pieces (optional))
  • 5 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup half-and-half (, or milk )
  • 1 cup finely shredded sharp or mild cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup finely shredded mozzarella or parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried parsley flakes
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/2-1 cup spinach (, chopped)

Instruction

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F.
  • Press the dough around the edges of a 9-inch tart pan or pie dish. Place on a baking sheet. Pierce the bottom of the pie crust with a fork. Bake 5 minutes and then remove from oven. Set aside.
  • In a small frying pan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add onions and sauté 2 minutes. Stir in ham and bacon pieces and cook an additional 3 minutes, or until the onions have caramelized. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and half-and-half. Stir in cheddar, mozzarella, parsley flakes, pepper, spinach, and the ham mixture. Pour into the tart pan.
  • Bake 25 to 35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove from oven and let cool slightly. Enjoy while warm!
