  • 1 1/4 cup pepper jack cheese , shredded and divided
  • 1 1/4 cup cheddar cheese , shredded and divided

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.  
  2. Unroll pie crust in in a 8 or 9 inch pie plate. Generously pierce uncooked crust to allow steam to rise and the crust to bake evenly. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until crust is light brown. You can use pie weights to ensure it stays down. 
  3. In a large mixing bowl whisk together diced green chiles, 1 cup shredded pepper jack cheese, 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese, eggs, flour, fin sea salt, milk and dry mustard. 
  4. Pour filling in baked crust. Bake for 45 minutes or until eggs have set. 
  5. Remove and top with remaining cheeses (1/4 cup pepper jack and 1/4 cup cheddar.) Return to the oven for 5 minutes or until cheese is melted and bubbly.
  6. Remove and allow to sit for 10 minutes before serving.
