3/4 lbs leeks (about 3 medium; white and pale green parts only)
1/4 lb thinly sliced smoked ham
1 Cup Gruyere, coarsely grated

1 Cup Whole-milk mozzarella, coarsely grated
3 large eggs

1/4 tsp black pepper
1 3/4 Cups sour cream

Here is how you make Ham, Leek and Three Cheese Quiche:

Prebake pie dough in pie plate according to package instructions, then remove from oven and reduce temperature to 350 degrees.Meanwhile, halve leeks lengthwise and cut crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces, then wash well in a bowl of cold water, agitating leeks. Lift out and drain leeks in a colander and pat dry. Melt butter in a 10" heavy skillet over moderately low heat and cook leeks, stirring occasionally, until very tender. About 8-10 minutes.Line warm pie shell with ham, overlapping layers as necessary to cover bottom and side of pie shell completely. Toss cheeses together and sprinkle evenly into pie shell (do not pack cheese), then spread leeks evenly on top of the cheese. Whisk together eggs, nutmeg, pepper until combine then add sour cream. Whisk until smooth.Carefully pour half of the custard on top of the pie filling, gently moving cheese with a spoon to help custard dispense evenly. Slowly add remaining custard in the same manner. Cover pie loosely with foil, gently folding edges over the crust (make sure not to let the foil touch the top of the cheese mixture!) and transfer to baking sheet.Bake until the center of the filling is puffed and set (the center will be slightly wobbly, but make sure it's not liquidly) About 1 1/4- 1 1/2 hours. Cool on a rack for at least 20-30 minutes (filling will continue to set as it cools) and serve warm or at room temperatureMakes 8 8oz servingsNumber of Servings: 8Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user VPOPPY01.
