I love the way this sounds! Maybe another tortilla could be placed on top and covered with cheese, so that it will have a top crust! I'm saving this one in the 'make soon' file!


I agree, this sounds interesting and delicious!!


Mmmm sounds really tasty!


Sounds like a fun twist on quiche. Thanks for sharing!


Does sound like a unique quiche! Love this, gotta try it soon!


Oh, this looks good and quite simple too. On my must try soon list.


Love the sound of this one! Something different is always good!


This is very good! I made it as written except I didn't use a rotisserie chicken. I used 3 boneless skinless chicken breasts. I sauteed the chicken in onions, garlic, chili powder and cumin to give a little extra flavor. Everything else was as written. It browned up very nicely and sliced easily also! I topped it with salsa and sour cream as suggested! It was perfect! The whole family loved it! I added a photo!


Wow, great picture Lillian - this is going on the table this week...looks delicious! Thanks, pleclare, for posting it, and thanks lillian, for the beautiful visual!!
