I was looking for something to do with some eggs that were heading toward the end of their shelf life. I am a sucker for southwestern type eats. This was good and reheats well. This receip is a good base and you can play with the ingredients to find your perfect fit.
Ingredients:
6 eggs
1/4 cup water
1 teaspoon minced garlic
8 ounces cream cheese
1 (4 1/2 ounce) can chopped green chilies, drained
3 large flour tortillas
1 (11 ounce) can mexican-style corn, drained
1 1/2 cups salsa
1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided
fresh cilantro stem (optional)
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350.
2. In medium bowl, beat together eggs, water and garlic. Spray a 10 inch non-stick skillet lightly with non-stick cooking spray. Pour in egg mixture; cover and cook on medium-low heat until eggs are almost set, about 7-9 minutes. Set aside.
3. Meanwhile, mix together cream cheese and green chilies. Set aside.
4. Place tortilla in bottom of lightly greased 9 or 10 inch spring form pan. Spread with 1/2 of cream cheese mixture and the can of corn. Spread 1/2 cup of salsa over. Top with another tortilla, the remaining cream cheese mixture, the cooked eggs, 1 cup of the cheddar cheese, and 1/2 cup of the salsa. Top with the remaining tortilla. Cover loosely with aluminum foil. Baked in preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and top iwth remaining salsa and cheddar cheese. Bake 10 minutes longer or until cheese is melted and stacks are warm throughout. Remove rim of the pan and cut into wedges and serve. Garnish with cilantro sprigs.
