What a clever way to use tortillas! The ingredients are fresh and light, and the corn add a bit of texture while the chilli powder adds a bit of heat.
Ingredients
- 5 medium (7-inch/18 cm) whole wheat tortillas
- ½ cup (125 mL) diced ham
- ½ cup (125 mL) chopped sweet green or red peppers
- 1 cup (250 mL) shredded light Cheddar cheese or cheese blend
- 8 eggs
- ½ cup (125 mL) no salt or salt reduced cream style corn
- 1 tsp (5 mL) chili powder
- 2 tbsp (30 mL) chopped fresh cilantro or parsley
Instructions
- Step 1
Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C).
- Step 2
Spray 9-inch (23 cm) pie plate with cooking spray. Place four tortillas in pie plate, overlapping, covering rim of pie plate and extending 1/2 to 1 inch (1 to 2.5 cm) beyond rim. Place remaining tortilla in the centre. Sprinkle ham, peppers and cheese over top.
- Step 3
Whisk eggs, then whisk in corn and chili powder; carefully pour mixture into pie plate. Bake in preheated 350°F (180°C) oven until centre is set, about 30 minutes.
