Repost for mc2/3/4 users: Egg and Green Chile Bake - tested - xpost

[Guest guest]

For MC2/3/4 users, I'm reposting this recipe for you. Please toss the

earlier one I posted a few days ago... (Dr. T. let me know that it

corrupted when he imported it. I think the Notes field for MC5/6 allows

for larger number of words that earlier versions of MC won't accept. I

tested my post in my MC3.02...it imported fine...but when I clicked to open

the recipe, I got the 'corruption' notification as Dr. T did. So, I fixed

the recipe here for MC2, MC3, MC4 users.) PS: My husband sure liked

this crustless quiche type dish!!!

 

Sorry for any inconvenience my post has caused.

Description:

" A crustless green chile quiche type dish. Good! "

Source:

" Served at Big Yellow Sunflower Bed & Breakfast, Angwin, Ca. (1 room

B & B) "

 

** Cheese: I used less cheese, about 1/4 lb. I had no cheese in house

except sliced Havarti - cut into smaller pieces more like cubes, it worked

fine. (Comparing it to similar dishes I make regularly, I couldn't tell the

difference in cheese or amount of it. Still yummy and melty cheesy.)

 

NOTES : This is called the " Sunshine Special " at the B & B. A keeper.

Similar to another crustless egg/green chili dish that I make and love.

This one is light and tasty. I used low-fat cottage cheese and sour

cream. I had no Jack cheese, so I used about 1/4 of lb of sliced Harvarti

cheese, diced up. (6 minutes into the baking, I realized I'd forgotten to

add the melted butter. No matter. Added it and started timing over.) I

baked in a full sized, deep dish ceramic pie pan (not sure what size) and

so, I needed to bake longer than the 30 minutes that's called for. (I

sprayed the pan with PAM.) I added about 10 minutes to the 30 minutes

cooking time (what with the mistaken 6 at the beginning). So, if using one

pan, I'd start out timing at 30 min and add 5 minute increments if

needed. I let the top brown just a bit a the edges before removing from

oven (and inserted a kitchen knife that came out clean). A lovely

breakfast/brunch dish alongside fried yellow new pototoes (fried in mostly

olive oil with onions, and two colors of bell peppers - sprinkled with

pinches of dried Mexican oregano and thyme) and warm bread - fresh (renewed

by nuking for 20 seconds) French baguette slices. Served Jeff & Jerry & I

and left plenty for 3 more people or another meal. ~ Brenda Adams (12/2/00)
