Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C).

Chop the ham into small, bite-sized pieces and spread it evenly over the bottom of the pie crust.
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese and shredded mozzarella cheese evenly over the ham layer.
In a medium mixing bowl, crack the eggs and whisk them until smooth.
Add the milk, salt, black pepper, and dried parsley (if using) to the eggs, and whisk until well combined.
Pour the egg mixture evenly over the ham and cheese in the pie crust, ensuring it fills the crust without overflowing.
Place the quiche in the preheated oven and bake for 35 minutes or until the center is set and the top is golden brown.
Remove the quiche from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy!
