Ham and Cheese Quiche

subheading: You'll need just seven ingredients to make this ham and cheese quiche, plus salt and pepper. But you can get creative and add other things, including chopped vegetables or bacon, or change up the herbs. To begin, you'll need:

Piecrusts: Save yourself some effort and use a refrigerated piecrust. If you want to make your own, we like this recipe for Perfect Pie Crust.

Eggs: You'll need just three for this quiche.

Half-and-half: You could use whole milk or even heavy cream, but half-and-half has a good balance of richness and flavor. You could also use equal parts heavy cream and milk to create your own half-and-half.

Chives: Add a bit of brightness to the quiche filling. If you aren't a chives fan, consider thyme or parsley.

Dijon mustard: It won't be very pronounced, but some mustard helps brighten up the quiche flavor and add a note of sharpness against all the rich dairy.

Kosher salt and black pepper: For seasoning.

Cheese: We like semi-hard nutty cheeses like Gruyere or Swiss, but you could use whatever you have in the fridge, including Cheddar, Manchego, or Gouda.

Ham: Diced ham is a great option, and you can usually find some pre-diced ham in the meat section of your grocery store. Better yet, use leftovers and dice it yourself.
