FAST HAM AND PEPPER DUMP QUICHE

Ok, your probably wondering what to do with all the leftover ham after Easter. We all have it and well -we need to find different ways to use it up. I diced up part of mine and put it in the freezer for later casseroles or even to throw on a pizza (low carb crust of course) or in omelets.

But I also took 3 good, thick slices and through this together. I called it "dump" because -well frankly you could probably dump anything you have leftover in it. Lots of different veggies left over would go great in this, any kind of cheese--and mix in some chicken/turkey/sausage. This is flexible -so be very creative. Clean out the fridge and go for it.

3 slices ham cooked and cubed
1 c. shredded Swiss, Cheddar, or Mozzarella (can combine cheeses)
1 bell pepper-I like red or yellow-diced up
4 eggs
1 c. heavy cream
1/4 tsp. salt (optional)
1/8 tsp. pepper
Sprinkle meat, cheese, and pepper in a 9 inch glass pie plate-or 8x8. Beat eggs, cream and seasonings in large mixing bowl with a fork, until well blended. Pour over meat mixture. Microwave on 80% power for 9 1/2 to 11 minutes. Turn the dish halfway through cooking time. Yield: 6 servings.
