TORTILLA CHIP CRUST FOR SAVORY PIE (QUICHE, MEXICAN PIE, ETC.)
Great use for those extra little pieces at the bottom of the bag, or chips that are going slightly stale. It's extremely easy, made with the same method as a graham cracker crust. I find that a blender or food processor works best for getting these crushed finely enough - roughly the same as graham cracker crumbs. If you're using salted chips, be sure to omit or adjust any salt in your recipe.

CRUSTLESS MEXICAN QUICHE
A great quiche to make if you're watching your carbs. I found this recipe from a diet forum I'm on and it's addictive! I've already made it three times, and once for work. My co workers were hooked and were all asking for the recipe. I substitute ground turkey for beef.

Steps:
- 1. Brown the ground meat and pour off the fat. Add the taco seasoning and water. There should really be no "juice" in the pan, so cook it down a little if there is.
- 2. In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream, and stir in the cheese.
- 3. Spray a large 13x9 pan with cooking spray and then scatter in the meat evenly. Slowly pour the egg mixture over the meat. You might need to stir it a little afterward so that the meat is evenly distributed.
- 4. Bake at 400 for around 30 - 40 minutes. It will get a little brown on the top.
- 5. Cut into pieces and top with your garnish(s) of choice - salsa, guacamole, sour cream, etc

- Don't overcook the chorizo: The chorizo should be cooked until it is browned and crispy, but not overcooked. Otherwise, it will be dry and tough.
- Use a good quality cheese: The cheese is another important ingredient in this quiche, so it's important to use a good quality one. Use a cheese that melts well and has a good flavor.
- Don't overfill the quiche crust: The quiche crust should be filled to the brim, but not overfilled. Otherwise, the quiche will overflow when it bakes.
