Variations:
- For Lattice-Top Quiche: Use ready-made pie pastry for
single crust pie. Cut pastry into 1/2-inch-wide strips. Lay pastry
strips over filling in lattice-fashion, turning pastry over outside
edge of dish. Bake as directed above.
- For Mini-Quiche Appetizers: Use 1 1/2 packages (3 crusts)
refrigerated pie crusts. Grease miniature muffin pans. Unfold
crust on lightly floured surface. Cut 14 (2 1/2-inch) circles
from each crust. Press 1 circle of dough into bottom and up sides
of each cup. Repeat with remaining crusts. Combine cheese, ham,
green onions, 2/3 cup (5 ounce can) NESTLÉ® CARNATION®
Evaporated Milk, 2 eggs (lightly beaten), 2 tablespoons flour,
salt and black pepper in large bowl; mix well. Spoon mixture
into crusts, filling 3/4 full. Bake in preheated 350°F (175°C)
oven for 20 to 25 minutes or until crusts are golden brown. Cool
slightly; lift quiche from cup with tip of knife. Serve warm
or cool and freeze for later entertaining. Makes 3 1/2 dozen.
