Ingredients

• 1 tablespoon grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 4 green onions, chopped
• 1 teaspoon chopped fresh chives
• 1 prepared 9-inch single pie crust
• 1 cup fat-free egg substitute
• 7 fluid ounces fat-free evaporated milk
• 0.25 cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
• 0.5 pound cooked ham, cubed

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Unroll pie crust and press into an 8-inch pie dish.

Step 2

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir green onions until wilted and beginning to brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat. Spread ham over prepared pie crust and top with green onions.

Step 3

Whisk egg substitute, evaporated milk, and mozzarella cheese in a bowl. Pour over ham mixture. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and garnish with chives.

Step 4

Bake in preheated oven for 20 minutes. Increase heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) and continue baking until quiche is browned, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from oven and allow quiche to rest until eggs are set, about 30 minutes more.
