Tender asparagus, Gruyere cheese and savory bits of ham make this creamy asparagus quiche a springtime favorite. While this recipe includes a low carb pie crust, make it crustless to lower carbs even further. It?s an easy dish that makes a great family friendly meal and one of my go-to?s on busy nights.

So, let?s be truthful for a minute?

Quiche is a dish my mother?s generation made and served at ladies luncheons. With its French origins, flaky crust and silky custard filling, quiche is an impressive dish that elevates its humble ingredients; a savory pie filled with eggs, cream (or milk) and cheese with some odds and ends thrown in for flavor. A good quiche is simple and delicious.
As often with quiche recipes, this ham and asparagus quiche took advantage of what I had in the refrigerator: leftover Easter ham, some fresh asparagus, a few forgotten green onions and the last of our eggs. With minimal time and effort the asparagus quiche was in the oven, filling the house with amazing smells.

CRUST: This particular ham and asparagus quiche recipe is low carb because I used an almond flour pie crust. Adding sesame seeds to the bottom of the pie plate ensures the crust doesn?t stick and adds a nice flavor. Feel free to use your favorite crust recipe or make this quiche crustless for an ultra low carb version....
