GREEN CHILI CHEESE SQUARES

These make a great appetizer. They taste like little quiches but are much easier to make. ( have done them in an 8 x 8 pan and they turn out just as good) Sorry this photo is so awful; I will take another next time I make them. I did have great compliments this last time I made them, and that is when I decided to take the photo. Didn't have much to work with because they were almost gone :--)
