How to Make Mexican Quiche For One

  1. Heat a small skillet over medium heat. Place one 6-inch flour tortilla in the skillet and cook for 45 seconds per side, or until warmed through.
  2. Lightly grease a 15-ounce ramekin or oven-safe dish. Place the warmed tortilla in the prepared dish.
  3. Sprinkle 1/4 cup (approximately 30g) of shredded cheddar cheese over the tortilla.
  4. In the same skillet, cook 1/4 cup (approximately 50g) cooked sausage (removed from casing), 1/4 cup (approximately 30g) chopped green bell pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon of finely chopped jalapeño (or more, to taste) until the sausage is cooked through and the pepper is tender-crisp. Drain any excess grease.
  5. Spoon the sausage and pepper mixture evenly over the cheese in the ramekin.
  6. In a small bowl, whisk together 1 large egg, 2 tablespoons (30ml) of milk or cream, and a pinch of salt.
  7. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the sausage and pepper filling.
  8. Top with the remaining 1/4 cup (approximately 30g) of shredded cheddar cheese.
  9. Bake in a preheated 350°F (175°C) oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the quiche is set and the cheese is golden brown.
  10. Let cool slightly before serving. Garnish with salsa and fresh cilantro, if desired.
