Ham and Egg Pie

Three kinds of cheese, ham, salami, and green onion make for a fabulous breakfast
 pie. This is also a great dish for a brunch, appetizer, or light dinner.

Ingredients
2  cups all-purpose flour
1  tablespoon baking powder
1/2  teaspoon salt
1/2  cup milk
1/3  cup cooking oil
6   eggs, slightly beaten
1  cup cream-style cottage cheese
1/2  cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese (2 ounces)
1/2  cup shredded mozzarella cheese (2 ounces)
2  ounces cooked ham, chopped
2  ounces salami, chopped
2  tablespoons sliced green onion
2  tablespoons snipped fresh Italian parsley
 

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degree F. In a medium bowl stir together all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Make a well in center of dry ingredients. In a small bowl combine milk and oil.   Add liquid ingredients all at once; stir until moistened. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface. Quickly knead dough by gently folding and pressing dough 10 to 12 strokes or  until nearly smooth.  On a lightly floured surface roll dough to a 12-inch circle. Line a 9-inch pie plate with dough. Fold under the extra pastry; crimp edge as desired.
 
2. For filling, in a medium bowl stir together eggs, cottage cheese, shredded cheeses, ham, salami, green onion, and parsley. Pour into unbaked crust. Bake for 50 to 55 minutes or until a knife inserted near the center comes out clean. If necessary, cover edge of crust with foil during baking to prevent overbrowning. Let stand 10 minutes before serving. Makes 8 servings.
