How to Make After Christmas Quiche

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Press 1 1/2 cups of leftover dressing firmly into a 9-inch pie plate, forming a crust. Trim any excess.
  3. Bake for 10 minutes. Remove from oven and reduce temperature to 350°F (175°C).
  4. Evenly distribute 1 1/2 cups of cooked, chopped leftover meat (e.g., ham, turkey) and 1 cup of shredded leftover cheese over the hot crust.
  5. In a medium bowl, whisk together 4 large eggs, 1 cup of milk, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper.
  6. Gently pour the egg mixture evenly over the meat and cheese.
  7. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the quiche is set and the center is no longer jiggly.
  8. Let cool for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
  9. Garnish with sliced tomatoes and a sprinkle of paprika, if desired.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
