Now, you must excuse me, but I cannot remember where I saw this idea to use these tortillas...
Let me know if it was you and I will gladly give you credit - because they turned out really great!
Eight in a pack means there are leftovers and some to freeze! Quiches are great for using up tired vegetables that may be lurking in your fridge crisper...
This is what I put in my quiches....
Grated zucchini ...
Spring onions or plain onion...
Fresh corn taken off the cob...
Grated carrot...
I was given some kale at our WW meeting so that went in. Baby spinach is good too!
Bacon or ham...and I also like mushrooms but I totally forgot to get some.
I put all those things in a bowl them zap them in the microwave for a few minutes to just start them cooking...

I mix up 6 eggs, 1/4 cup cream, a slosh of milk and a big tablespoon of plain flour, 1 teaspoon of chicken stock powder and salt and pepps.
Add this to the veg/bacon and mix well. Now add a good handful of grated cheddar cheese. Mix well. (Use more or less cheese to suit yourself)
Divide the mixture between the 8 shells and top with slices of cherry tomato and a bit more cheese.
Bake for approx. 30 minutes in oven at 180C, keeping an eye on the shells so they don't burn.
Serve with a simple salad and a vinaigrette dressing. These can be made during the day then re-heated for dinner - easy and delicious!
I can imagine Christmas leftovers going into these little boats - turkey, cranberry quiches, ham and roast veggie quiches, chuck it all in!

Oh such a great idea! And still being able to freeze them is such a bonus! Thanks for sharing this :)
ReplyDeleteOh, that plate looks so pretty! It's barely the end of Autumn, and my mouth already waters for a fresh Spring salad! Those little quiche boats are awesome. We don't have the boat shaped tortillas here (just lots and LOTS of the flat ones) but I can think of several things off the top of my head they would be perfect for.
ReplyDeleteBrilliant. Thanks for sharing Joolz.
