- 1 cup cheddar cheese grated
- 1 cup Swiss cheese grated
- 1 cup ham diced
- 3 large eggs
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream

Instructions
- Place a pie crust into a 9-inch wide, 2-4-inch deep pan. Trim off the extra dough from the edges.

- While the crust is baking, whisk the eggs and heavy whipping cream together in a medium-sized bowl. Season the egg mixture with salt and pepper.
- Fill the baked crust with the diced ham, swiss, and cheddar cheese.
- Pour the egg mixture into the crust and bake it at 400°F for about 20 minutes or until the center is no longer jiggly.
