Tortilla Chip Crust for Savory Pie (Quiche, Mexican Pie, Etc.) image

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.

I'm not sure about this recipe. The tortilla chip crust seems like it would be soggy.

This recipe is a great idea, but I think it needs some tweaks. I would try using a different type of cheese or adding some spices to the filling.

The tortilla chip crust was a bit too salty for my taste.

Great recipe! I used a store-bought rotisserie chicken for the filling and it turned out amazing.

This was a great recipe! I made it for a party and it was a hit. The tortilla chip crust was a nice change from the traditional pie crust and it held up well to the filling.

I love this recipe! The tortilla chip crust is so easy to make and it's the perfect base for a savory pie or quiche. The filling is also very versatile, so you can use whatever vegetables, cheeses, and proteins you have on hand.
