Waffle Quiches
6 to 8 frozen waffles (depending on size)
1 cup chopped ham
1 cup shredded Havarti cheese
3 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup heavy cream
1/2 teaspoon salt
Dash pepper
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Make sure that the waffles are solid and don't have any holes. Toast waffles until crisp. Then place on a baking tray with sides.
Sprinkle ham and Havarti cheese over the waffles.
In medium bowl, combine eggs, heavy cream, salt, and pepper and beat until combined. Spoon egg mixture over each waffle, being careful not to overfill the waffle indentations. You may need to use more waffles for this amount of egg, depending on their size. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese. Bake for 20-30 minutes or until egg mixture is set and cheese is lightly browned. Let cool for 10 minutes, then serve.
