Recipe: Manly Man Quiche

MANLY MAN QUICHE

1 cup roughly diced ham
Butter
1 (unpeeled) zucchini, grated; squeeze out liquid in paper towels (or use another favorite vegetable)
1 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup diced mushrooms
1 unbaked (9 or 10-inch) pastry shell (I pre-bake shell about 5 minutes)
3 cups shredded white Cheddar, Monterey Jack or Swiss cheese (or combination)
3 eggs, slightly beaten (I have been known to use 4)
1 cup milk
1/2 tsp salt
1/8 tsp ground black pepper
1/4 tsp ground nutmeg

Heat the diced ham in large skillet with a bit of butter.

Add zucchini, onion and mushrooms; cook until onion is soft.

Turn contents of skillet into the pastry shell. Sprinkle with cheese. Pour a mixture of eggs, milk, salt, pepper and nutmeg over cheese.

Bake at 350 degrees F for 30-35 minutes or until very lightly browned and set.
