Quesadilla Pie
From The Girl Who Ate Everything
Ingredients
1 10 inch tortilla
2 cups shredded chicken*
1/3 cup diced jalapenos, I bought a lil' can and used about half of it
1/2 cup chopped cilantro
2 cups cheddar cheese, grated
salt and pepper
2 eggs
1 cup milk
1 cup flour
1 tsp baking powder
salsa, for serving
1. Preheat the oven to 450. Soften your tortilla in the microwave for a few seconds and place it in a greased 9 inch pie plate.
2. Mix chicken, jalapenos, cilantro, 1 cup cheese, salt and pepper in a bowl. Place in pie plate.
3. Mix eggs, milk, flour, salt, and baking powder in a bowl (use the one you just had the chicken in). Pour over filling. Sprinkle with remaining cup of cheese. Bake 15-20 minutes until cheese is browned and melted.
4. Let cool 5 minutes. Cut into wedges and serve with salsa on the side.
*I despise when recipes have cooked chicken as an ingredient. Who has cooked chicken just laying around the house?! I do... I cooked up 5 chicken breasts, shredded them and bagged them up for times like this. I highly recommend you do the same on a lazy Sunday. Each breast is about 2 cups of chicken.
You are definitely going to want to have some salsa with your slice of the pie. It needs a bit of flavor punching, guacamole would be nice too. I think next time I will put some salsa into the pie as well.
