Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 medium yellow onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 0.5 cup diced tomatoes, drained
- 0.25 cup chopped pickles (optional)
- 2 tablespoons ketchup (optional, for garnish)
- 2 teaspoons mustard (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the skillet with the ground beef. Cook until the onion is soft and translucent, about 2-3 minutes. Season the mixture with salt and black pepper.
Spread the cooked beef mixture evenly in a greased 9-inch pie dish.
In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, heavy cream, Worcestershire sauce, and 1 cup of the shredded cheddar cheese until well combined.
Pour the egg mixture over the beef mixture in the pie dish, ensuring it spreads evenly.
Sprinkle the remaining 0.5 cup of shredded cheddar cheese on top.
Evenly distribute the diced tomatoes (and chopped pickles, if using) over the surface of the quiche.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35-40 minutes, or until the center of the quiche is set and the top is golden brown.
Remove the quiche from the oven and let it cool for about 5-10 minutes before slicing.
Optional: Drizzle ketchup and mustard over the top before serving for that classic cheeseburger taste.
