How to Make Asparagus Ham Quiche

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease two 9-inch pie plates.
  2. Layer 1 cup chopped cooked asparagus, ½ cup diced ham, ½ cup shredded cheddar cheese, and ¼ cup thinly sliced onion evenly in each pie plate.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together 6 large eggs, 1 cup heavy cream, ½ cup milk, 1 teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon black pepper.
  4. Pour half of the egg mixture evenly into each prepared pie plate.
  5. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the quiche is set and lightly golden brown. A knife inserted near the center should come out clean.
  6. Let cool slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy!

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.
