Ingredients

6 large eggs
1 cup fat-free cottage cheese
3 ounces shredded light Swiss cheese
1 cup diced or chopped cooked ham we used deli ham
2 tablespoons fresh chives chopped
1 teaspoon stone-ground mustard or Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon onion powder

Instructions

Finely chop the cooked ham. We chopped deli ham for this recipe.
Crack the eggs into a large bowl and whisk them.
Add the cottage cheese, shredded light Swiss cheese, chopped cooked ham, chopped fresh chives, stone-ground mustard, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder to the bowl.
Mix the ingredients in the bowl.
Lightly spray a 9-inch pie dish or baking dish with oil. Then, pour the mixture into the dish. Bake the quiche at 350°F for 35-40 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is lightly golden.
Let the quiche cool for 15–20 minutes before slicing and serving to ensure a firm and creamy texture. Garnish with extra chopped chives if desired, and enjoy!
