Instructions:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, cook the ground beef until it's fully browned, breaking it apart with a spatula as it cooks. Drain any excess fat and transfer the beef to a large mixing bowl.
In the same skillet, add the chopped onions and sliced mushrooms. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the onions are translucent and the mushrooms are browned and tender. Add these to the bowl with the beef.
In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, mayonnaise salad dressing, and heavy whipping cream until fully combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Add the shredded cheddar cheese to the beef and vegetable mixture. Pour the egg mixture over the top and gently stir until everything is well-combined.
If you're using a pie crust, place it in a 9-inch pie dish and smooth out any wrinkles. If you prefer a crustless quiche, simply grease the pie dish with a little butter or oil.
Pour the beef and cheese mixture into the pie dish, spreading it out evenly.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the quiche is set. A knife inserted into the center should come out clean.
Allow the quiche to cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm, and enjoy!
Tips:
- For a more flavorful quiche, consider adding some garlic or Worcestershire sauce to the ground beef while cooking.
- Use a high-quality mayonnaise and cheddar cheese to enhance the overall taste of the quiche.
- Precook the mushrooms and onions to reduce their moisture content and enhance their flavors.
- Ensure the eggs, mayonnaise, and heavy whipping cream are well combined for a smooth custard.
- Let the baked quiche rest for about 10-15 minutes before slicing to allow it to set properly.
- Serve with a fresh side salad or steamed vegetables to complement the rich, cheesy quiche.
Once your quiche is baked to perfection, you'll be rewarded with a savory, cheesy, and satisfying meal that combines the best elements of a cheeseburger with the creamy, custardy goodness of a quiche. Enjoy it warm, and don't forget, this dish can easily become a family favorite for any time of the day. Happy cooking!
