Southwestern Quiche
- 1 1/2 c Flour
- 3/4 c Butter, unsalted
- 1 t Salt
- Water
- 2 Bell peppers (1 red, 1 yellow)
- 1 Onion, brown
- 1 c Corn, roasted
- 1 1/2 c Black beans, cooked, reserve liquid
- 1/2 c Green onions
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 1/4 c Cheddar and/or Jack cheese
- 1/2 lb. Chorizo
- 8 Eggs
- 1 t White pepper
- 1 T Salt
- Mix flour, butter, and salt together with a fork, or in an electric mixer.
- Add just enough water to bind, usually 1-2 T.
- Roll flat to 1/4", and place in pie tin. Make sure to poke the bottom with a fork before putting the veggies inside!
- Dice the bell peppers and onion, between 1/4 and 1/2".
- Mix the peppers and onions with the corn, green onions and garlic.Saute until the onions are translucent.
- Spread the veggies evenly into the pie crust.
- Saute the Chorizo until mostly browned, drain, and add to the crust with the beans and 1 c cheese. (I like to use the same pan as the vegetables to get a little more flavor!)
- Beat the eggs with no more than 1/2 c of liquid from the beans. Add salt and pepper.
- Pour egg mixture over the veggies, and sprinkle remaining cheese over the top.
- Bake at 375 until cooked through, roughly an hour. If you have a thermometer, the internal temperature should be at 165 degrees.
- The quiche can be garnished with sour cream, avocados, a nice pico de gallo, or a simple salad.
