Quiche gets a serious upgrade when you stuff it with cheeseburger fixings.

Browned ground beef and onion get folded into a custard of beaten eggs, milk, and plenty of cheddar cheese, then poured into a pie shell and baked until golden and set.

The result is somewhere between a juicy cheeseburger and a classic quiche, and that’s a neighborhood worth living in.

Chef Tips

  • Drain the beef really well after browning so the crust stays crisp and doesn’t get soggy
  • Let the quiche rest for 10 minutes after baking so it slices cleanly
  • Top each slice with a squirt of ketchup and mustard if you want to go full cheeseburger

Variations

  • Add diced pickles and a drizzle of special sauce for a Big Mac spin
  • Swap cheddar for pepper jack to bring some heat
  • Toss in crumbled bacon because, well, bacon
