You guys I'm so pumped to tell you about this one. Mississippi Sin Quiche has all those party dip vibes but comes together as a dreamy morning meal. There's melty cheese salty ham and a super crisp crust. I whip this up early for my busy days or whenever friends pop by it's always disappearing fast.

Why This Dish Feels Like Magic

If you've tasted Mississippi Sin Dip you already get it—now think of those fab flavors baked into a thick quiche. Seriously you'll think you're in food heaven. I dig how flexible it is whether I'm tossing in leftover ham from dinner or aiming for a crowd-pleaser. Prepping it in advance and tossing it in the freezer saves my sanity when life's nuts.

Grab These Ingredients

  • Flavorful Meat: Dice up a cup of ham. Bonus points if it's leftovers.
  • Rich & Creamy: Make sure that cream cheese is soft to keep things super smooth.
  • Cheese Factor: Dump in a cup of shredded cheddar. Extra cheese for the win!
  • Green Stuff: Sliced green onions bring a punch of flavor.
  • Hidden Flavors: Just a dash of Worcestershire sauce gives a tasty zing.
  • Bring The Heat: A shake or two of hot sauce makes it pop without being crazy hot.
  • Thick & Tangy: Sour cream for that perfect tanginess.
  • Main Basics: Grab four eggs your go-to pie crust and some milk.

Making It Is Easy

Finish Prep With That Crust
Fire up your oven to 375°F. Lay your pie crust in a 9-inch dish and give those edges a fancy shape.
Blend Up Everything
Get your cream cheese whipped up first so it's really creamy. Mix in the milk, Worcestershire, hot sauce, and sour cream then drop in the eggs one at a time. Stir in cheese, ham, and green onions last.
Pour And Spread
Scoop the filling into the crust and smooth it out.
Into The Oven
Bake for 40 to 45 minutes till it puffs up and sets in the center. Let it chill for a few before slicing.
Dive In
Tastes awesome warm but just as yummy once it cools to room temp.

Tricks To Make It Even Better

If you wanna get ahead freeze your assembled but unbaked quiche for up to two months. Just tack a couple minutes onto baking time. Leftover holiday ham? Perfect excuse to use it here. Want some kick? Toss in more hot sauce or even sprinkle red pepper flakes on top.

Awesome Sides To Pair

I usually plate this with a crisp salad or a handful of fresh fruit. Got a brunch crowd? Bust out some good bread or my go-to garlic toast. It's also clutch served with your favorite breakfast bites for a good food lineup.

Storing Made Simple

Leftover quiche? Stick it in the fridge for up to three days. Reheat by sliding into a 350°F oven for 10–15 minutes. Heads up I wouldn't freeze it after baking—it just doesn't hit the same. But freezing before baking works every time.

Frequently Asked Questions

→ How can I tell when it's fully baked?

Your quiche is done when the center is firm and doesn’t wiggle if you shake the pan. Poke a knife near the center—if it’s clean, you’re good to go.

→ Can I skip the crust?

Absolutely! Just coat your dish with cooking spray so nothing sticks. It might bake a bit faster, so start checking around 45 minutes in.

→ What’s the reason for warming up the ham?

Preheating the ham takes out extra water that could ruin your quiche’s texture. It’s a small step but makes a big difference.

→ How long will this stay fresh in the freezer?

It keeps up to three months, whether baked or unbaked. Wrap it tightly in foil and tuck it into a freezer bag for best results.

→ Can I swap heavy cream for something lighter?

If you prefer, use light cream or half-and-half. It won’t be as rich, but you’ll still end up with a flavorful dish.
