Tips & Substitutions
For a more flavorful quiche, consider adding spices like garlic powder or paprika. You can substitute the ham with cooked bacon or sausage for a different taste. If you don't have Colby cheese, cheddar or Swiss are great alternatives. Ensure the vegetables are finely chopped to avoid a watery quiche. This recipe is a great way to use up leftover vegetables from dishes like Baked Hominy And Cheese.
Serving Suggestions
Serve this quiche warm, and consider pairing it with a fresh green salad or roasted vegetables for a complete meal. It’s perfect for breakfast, brunch, or a light dinner. You can also serve it alongside a bowl of New England'S Finest Clam Chowder for a delightful combination.

Store any leftover quiche in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place slices in the microwave for about 30-60 seconds or until warmed through, or reheat in a 350°F oven for about 10-15 minutes for a crispier crust.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I freeze the quiche?
Yes, you can freeze the unbaked quiche before cooking. Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and foil, and store it in the freezer for up to 2 months. When ready to bake, simply remove it from the freezer and bake it directly from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the cooking time.
What can I use instead of Bisquick?
If you don't have Bisquick, you can make your own by combining 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 1 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. This homemade version will work just as well in the quiche recipe.
How do I know when the quiche is done?
The quiche is done when it is puffed and golden brown on top, and a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. If it wobbles too much in the middle, it likely needs a few more minutes in the oven.
