  • 1 cup arugula
  • 8 oz Swiss cheese shredded
  • 1 premade frozen pie crust

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

  • Mix in ham, roasted peppers, arugula and cheese.
  • Fold in butter and onion from skillet.
  • Place frozen pie crust on baking sheet, then add mixture to pie crust, distributing evenly in pan.

Notes

If making ahead, store quiche filling in bowl in fridge, then pour into frozen pie crust prior to baking.
You can sub bacon for ham and yellow onion for green onion for a different flavor profile.
