Ingredients

  • 8 soft flour tortilla bowls, I use Old El Paso
  • 3 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup half and half
  • 2 tsp. taco seasoning, I use Outside Table
  • 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
  • 1/4 tsp. pepper
  • 1 10-oz. can Ro-Tel tomatoes with green chiles
  • 1/2 cup sliced green onions
  • 1 1/2 cups shredded Colby Jack cheese

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk together your eggs, half and half, taco seasoning, hot sauce and kosher salt and pepper. Set aside.
  • Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Place your tortilla bowls on your baking sheet and equally divide your Ro-Tel tomatoes and green chilies, your green onions and lastly your shredded Colby Jack among the bowls.
  • Carefully pour the custard mixture into each of the bowls. The filling ingredients do not need to be fully covered. You will just divide the mixture evenly among the 8 soft tortilla bowls.
  • Bake for about 30 minutes or until knife inserted in center comes out clean. You will notice the custard mixture will start to puff up and lightly brown and the center will be set. (No jiggling) If the edges of your tortilla boats start to brown too much, lightly cover the bowls with a sheet of foil.

Notes

Make sure to drain your Ro-Tel tomatoes and chilies well so you don't have a watery egg custard mixture.
As I mentioned above, I also added some chopped green onions to my quiches, but I forgot to add them to my ingredients photo above.
I used a tablespoon of Hank's Sauce Camouflage Hot Sauce for my quiches because it's our favorite. Use whatever you prefer and add as much as you prefer. One tablespoon worked well for us.
