Teresa’s Ham & Asparagus Quiche Recipe

Teresa’s Ham & Asparagus Quiche Recipe

I know it is cliché, but real people (men and women alike) eat quiche;). Quiche is a versatile, crowd-pleasing meal often made for brunch, lunch, dinner, or even as a mini appetizer for parties, and it can include meats, vegetables, and cheeses. This tasty egg dish is perfect for any occasion and features fresh asparagus, salty ham, eggs, cheese, and Cherchies® Champagne Mustard

It is the Champagne Mustard that elevates this egg custard from average to excellent because it adds that "je ne sais quoi" (French for "I don't know what") to the eggs, making it a sure hit with your guests.

For a meatless version, load up on the asparagus, add various veggies, or substitute crab or shrimp for the meat.  

Grab a jar of Cherchies® Champagne Mustard and try this ultimate crowd-pleasing recipe today! You will not be disappointed. Serve this quiche with our soup mixes, Strawberry Spinach Salad, or Fruit Salad With Champagne Dressing for a complete meal.

Ingredients

  • 1 Tbsp low-fat sour cream

  • 1 Tbsp. Cherchies® Champagne Mustard

  • ¾ cup half & half (Teresa uses fat-free)

  • 4 eggs or 1 cup egg beaters, whipped

  • ¼ - ½ teaspoon (tsp) nutmeg

  • 1/2 teaspoon (tsp) Cherchies® Garlic 'n Herbs Seasoning

Preparation

Preheat oven 350 degrees.

Cut bottoms off of asparagus if using fresh asparagus.  Cut asparagus into 1- 1/2 inch pieces, reserving tops for the end.

Let set up and cool 15-20 min.  Serves 8

Monster Chicken Salad Sandwich Recipe

Monster Chicken Salad Sandwich Recipe

Monster Chicken Salad Sandwich Recipe

Cook Time: 15 minutes

Difficulty: Easy

Originally posted October 2018.

Halloween this year looks different than in years past, but if your goblins are venturing out to carve through the neighborhood on Halloween night, treat them to these irresistibly easy Monster Chicken Salad Sandwiches featuring Cherchies® Champagne Mustard.

I have always been a sucker for themed events, and Halloween, in particular, is one of those holidays that brings out the kid in me. It is purely fun and stress-free, from the decorations, the creative costumes, to the creepy food. When our kiddos were younger, they loved having their friends over hours before the big event for a Halloween potluck with all kinds of themed ghoulish treats, such as Jack-o-Lantern Dipsdeviled eyeballsWitches Cheese Brooms, and so much more! (See below for some of our favorite eerie concoctions).

Now that our children are older, it warms my heart that they still request spooky treats for Halloween; however, I prefer to extend the season and prepare ghoulish dishes weeks before Halloween. I whipped up a batch of our children’s favorite chicken salad recipe (featuring Cherchies® Champagne Mustard) the other day and had these Monster Chicken Salad Sandwiches waiting for our daughter when she came home from school, and she was terrifyingly thrilled.

Halloween is this Saturday, so if you are on the hunt for a “fang-tastic” recipe this Halloween, consider these deliciously easy Monster Chicken Salad Sandwiches, because they are “to die for”!

Ingredients

  • 2 cups Chicken breasts, cooked (store-bought rotisserie chicken would work well too.)

  • 1/3 cup Celery, finely chopped

  • 1 hard boiled egg, chopped

  • 2/3 cup Mayonnaise

  • 1 Tablespoon Cherchies® Champagne Mustard

  • 1/3 cup sweet pickle relish

  • 1/4 tsp pepper, fresh ground

  • 1/4 tsp salt

  • 1/2 cup chopped grapes (optional)

  • 1/4 cup chopped pecans (optional)

  • Slices of cheddar cheese (you could use American cheese slices)

  • Rolls of your choice

  • Romaine lettuce, washed and separated

  • Large olives stuffed with pimentos for the eyes

  • colorful toothpicks for the eyes

Preparation

I usually cook the chicken and eggs the day before, so place the cooked chicken in a food processor and pulse until the chicken is chopped.  (Coarsely hand chopping the chicken will work just as well).  Place the chicken into a medium bowl.  Add the remaining ingredients to the bowl and stir. Set aside.

**Note- Grapes and pecans would be a nice addition to the chicken salad. Even though I LOVE chicken salad made that way, our children usually balk at the thought, so I leave them out.  How cute would these be made into sliders? (Switch up the regular sized rolls for slider buns and use smaller olives).

Separate, wash, and pat dry the lettuce. Set aside. Place slices of cheese on a cutting board and with a sharp knife, cut “teeth” triangles into cheese. Save cut-outs for another recipe.

To a sliced roll, add the cheese “teeth”, the lettuce, and a generous dollop of chicken salad. That's it!

Add the top of the bun to the sandwich, then decorate the monster sandwich with the olives on toothpicks. Go ahead and have fun with your food! Enjoy!

We have compiled 30 of our favorite easy recipes featuring our three award-winning mustards (Cherchies® Champagne Mustard (our Flagship product), Cherchies® Cranberry Mustard, and Cherchies® Hot Banana Pepper Mustard).

Who says mustard is only for hot dogs, burgers, and pretzels? Not us! Beyond the beloved wieners and sandwiches, do you know that many chefs and home cooks cleverly add some “mustard zing” to their culinary dishes?

  • Use mustard as a thickener for stews.

  • Add mustard as an emulsifier for vinaigrette recipes.

  • Use as a glaze or rub for meats.

  • Enhance your marinades with mustard.

  • Use as a dip for pretzels, chicken tenders, cheese, and so much more!

Mustard’s versatility is an understatement, so if you love mustard like we do and want to add extra zing to your favorite dishes, then grab a jar, make it with mustard, and make something amazing! Imagine the possibilities! Enjoy these fabulous recipes!
