Green Chili Quiche Microwave Food

GREEN CHILI QUICHE

Steps:

• Linda said to pre bake pie crust a few minutes. I bake it according to the directions on the box. She also recommends to brush with an egg white if you aren't going to eat it right away to prevent sogginess. You will put the filling into the hot crust.
• In a medium bowl beat eggs. Mix in milk and seasonings.
• Drain chilis. (I don't drain because the brand I use doesn't have anything to drain.) Place half on bottom of crust.
• Add cheese and then egg mixture. Top with remaining chilis.
• Dust top with pepper.
• Bake at 375 for 40 minutes or until knife comes out clean from center. (Like a custard.).
• Let stand for 10 minutes or so to set.
