Ingredients
- 10 eggs
- 2 cups diced ham
- 1/2 cup chopped onion
- 1/2 cup diced bell peppers (any color)
- 1 diced tomato
- 1 cup milk
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- A pinch of salt and pepper
- 1/8 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
Preparation Instructions
Step 1: Whisk the Eggs and Milk
In a large mixing bowl, crack the 10 eggs and pour in the 1 cup of milk.
Whisk the mixture thoroughly until the eggs and milk are well combined.
Step 2: Add the Cheddar Cheese and Seasoning
Stir in the 2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese.
Add a pinch of salt and pepper to taste, mixing it well.
Step 3: Incorporate the Veggies and Ham
Toss in the diced ham, chopped onion, bell peppers, diced tomato, and fresh parsley.
Mix everything together until evenly combined.
Step 4: Prepare the Slow Cooker
Lightly grease the inside of your slow cooker with cooking spray or a small amount of butter to prevent sticking.
Step 5: Cook the Quiche
Pour the egg mixture into the greased slow cooker.
Cover with the lid and cook on low heat for 4–5 hours, or until the center is set and no longer jiggly.
Serving Suggestions
Breakfast: Pair with a side of toast, fresh fruit, or breakfast potatoes.
Lunch or Dinner: Serve with a green salad or roasted vegetables for a complete meal.
Leftovers: Store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days and reheat in the microwave or oven.
Tips for the Perfect Slow Cooker Quiche
Customize Your Ingredients: Swap ham for cooked bacon or sausage, and use your favorite veggies like spinach or mushrooms.
Add Spice: Sprinkle in a pinch of red pepper flakes or paprika for a kick of heat.
Check Doneness: Use a toothpick or knife to test the center—it should come out clean when the quiche is fully cooked.
Larger Slow Cookers: If using a large slow cooker, reduce cooking time slightly to avoid overcooking.
