Step 1

Fit refrigerated pie crust into a 9-inch quiche dish according to package directions; prick bottom and sides with a fork.

Bake a pie crust at 425°F for 12 minutes; set aside.

Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium-high heat; add onion and saute until tender. Add cream cheese and milk; cook over low heat, whisking until cheese melts. Gradually whisk about one-fourth of hot mixture into eggs; add to remaining hot mixture, whisking constantly. Whisk in ham and remaining ingredients; pour into prepared crust.

Bake at 350° for 35-40 minutes or until set.
