Gluten Free Ham and Cheese Quiche

First, I want to start off by saying be sure to watch the recipe video for this ham and cheese quiche in the post below (right before the recipe)! You can also watch it on Facebook where it can easily be shared.

Eating meals as a family has always been a big part of my life. When I was growing up, my family had dinner together at the table almost every night.

This easy ham and cheese quiche recipe is a spin on our family’sbacon and swiss quiche. Although that one is still my favorite, it’s always nice to switch it up every once in a while so you don’t get bored.

There were a few nights here and there where someone had a meeting or we had school activities during dinner hours as teenagers. But for the most part, we ate when everyone was home for dinner. So some nights we ate at 5:00 and other nights at 7.

Now as an adult, I apply those same values I had growing up to my family. We eat meals together every night.

Not only do we eat dinner together, but we also eat breakfast and lunch as a family when we’re home. For us, it’s such an important time to gather together.

“Family meals eaten at home have been proven to benefit the health and wellness of children and adolescents, to fight obesity, substance abuse and to make families stronger – creating a positive impact on our communities and our nation as a whole”.

One family meal that we had growing up was quiche, which was the inspiration for this ham and cheese quiche. We often had itfor Christmas and Easter brunch, so it was one of those special dishes that really spoke ‘family’ to me.

If you’re not in love with quiche like I am, you have probably been eating one that doesn’t have the right egg:milk ratio. The French perfected it long ago with their onepart egg to twoparts milk ratio.

In other words, half a cup of milk is used for every egg. 3 eggs, 1 1/2 cups milk is the perfect mixture to get you that silky smooth custard that’s crazy good.

Many recipes that I’ve seen on Pinterest just call for way too many eggs that will leave you disappointed. Try it this way and you’ll never go back to rubbery/overly eggy quiche!

In this particular gluten free ham and cheese quiche recipe, I used Hormel Cure 81 ham steak. It’s already cooked so it’s a quick option for weeknight meals and it’s perfect for dicing up into the quiche.

Cure 81 hamsare the best hand-picked hams that are perfect for any night. Of course, if you have leftover ham in your fridge from Christmas, Easter, or Sunday dinner, you can use that too! Just make sure it doesn’t have a sweet glaze on it or it will throw off the flavor of this quiche.

This easy ham and cheese quiche is really for the meat lovers since it’s so full of ham and bacon. It’s hearty enough to serve for dinner or it would be a great addition to your brunch menu.

If you’re looking for ideas for what to serve with this, try it with my gluten free cinnamon coffee cake or blueberry sweet rolls for a sweet brunch option.

You can even have it with a simple strawberry kale salad or gluten free banana oat muffins. So many great options to have with quiche!

No matter what time of day you eat it, sit down with your family and enjoy!
