Potato Crust Quiche

I tried a Quiche tonight. What is not to love with having potato's, onions, eggs, ham and Broccoli in a dish?


Crust
  • 4 cups coarsely shredded potatoes
  • 1/2 cup diced onion
  • 1 egg beaten
  • 1 cup flour
  • salt
Filling
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded cheese, divided
  • 1/2 cup onion chopped
  • 1 1/2 cup cooked ham diced
  • 1 1/2 cups broccoli florets
  • 3 eggs beaten
  • 1 cup cream
  • paprika
Combine crust ingredients and press into a well greased 10 inch deep dish pie plate. * I used a spring pan*
Bake at 400 for 20 minutes. Remove crust from oven and reduce heat to 350. Add 1 cup cheese, onion, ham and broccoli to crust. Mix eggs, cream, salt and pour over all.  Sprinkle with paprika and bake for 35-40 minutes or until set. Remove from the oven and top with remaining cheese. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.

It was very good. I would add maybe some hot sauce to the egg mixture next time and use less potatoes for the crust as it was alittle to thick.
