TORTILLA CHIP CRUST FOR SAVORY PIE (QUICHE, MEXICAN PIE, ETC.)



Tortilla Chip Crust for Savory Pie (Quiche, Mexican Pie, Etc.) image

Great use for those extra little pieces at the bottom of the bag, or chips that are going slightly stale. It's extremely easy, made with the same method as a graham cracker crust. I find that a blender or food processor works best for getting these crushed finely enough - roughly the same as graham cracker crumbs. If you're using salted chips, be sure to omit or adjust any salt in your recipe.

CRUSTLESS MEXICAN QUICHE



Crustless Mexican Quiche image

A great quiche to make if you're watching your carbs. I found this recipe from a diet forum I'm on and it's addictive! I've already made it three times, and once for work. My co workers were hooked and were all asking for the recipe. I substitute ground turkey for beef.

Provided by Jessica Fontenot

Categories     Eggs

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lb ground beef or turkey
1 pkg taco seasoning
1/4 c water
12 eggs
1 c heavy whipping cream
2 c shredded cheese
sour cream, for garnish
salsa, for garnish

Steps:

  • 1. Brown the ground meat and pour off the fat. Add the taco seasoning and water. There should really be no "juice" in the pan, so cook it down a little if there is.
  • 2. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream, and stir in the cheese.
  • 3. Spray a large 13x9 pan with cooking spray and then scatter in the meat evenly. Slowly pour the egg mixture over the meat. You might need to stir it a little afterward so that the meat is evenly distributed.
  • 4. Bake at 400 for around 30 - 40 minutes. It will get a little brown on the top.
  • 5. Cut into pieces and top with your garnish(s) of choice - salsa, guacamole, sour cream, etc
