Ingredients

1/2 pound fresh green beans, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
1 cup cubed fully cooked ham
1 jar (6 ounces) sliced mushrooms, drained
1 cup shredded Swiss cheese
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
3 large eggs, lightly beaten
1-1/2 cups 2% milk
3/4 cup biscuit/baking mix
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper

Directions

Place beans in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil; cook, uncovered, for 5 minutes or until crisp-tender.
Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the ham, mushrooms, cheese, onion and garlic powder. Drain beans; stir into ham mixture. Transfer to a 9-in. deep-dish pie plate coated with cooking spray.
In a small bowl, combine the eggs, milk, biscuit mix, salt and pepper just until blended; pour over ham mixture.
Bake 400° for 35-40 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Let stand for 5 minutes before cutting.

Great recipe. We were doubtful about green in a quiche, but I had a ton of HoneyBaked Ham leftover to use up. It was awesome! I left out the mushrooms, and it turned out fine.
