Ingredients

1 1/3 c. cracker or tortilla chip crumbs (see Tips)
3 tbsp. butter
1/2 c. milk
1/2 c. cottage cheese
2 tbsp. Dijon or honey mustard
1/4 tsp. kosher salt
1/4 tsp. Freshly ground black pepper
3 eggs
1 c. grated sharp Cheddar cheese (1/4 pound)
1 c. chopped ham
4 scallions

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a medium bowl, mix together crumbs and butter. Press mixture into a standard (9") pie pan to form the crust's bottom and sides; bake 10 minutes.
In a large bowl, whisk together milk, cottage cheese, mustard, salt, pepper, and eggs. Scatter 1/2 cup cheese over bottom of crust, then pour in egg mixture. Toss remaining 1/2 cup cheese with ham and scallions, then scatter over eggs, pressing down gently. Place a tray on the bottom rack of the oven to catch drips, then bake quiche on middle rack until eggs are set and top is golden, about 50 minutes.
