"Recipe courtesy of Sara Moulton and Cooking Channel. This quiche gets its Southwestern flair from Monterey jack cheese and canned chiles. But if you have a little more time, you should lose the canned chiles and make it instead with roasted fresh poblanos, which are even more delicious. I like the contrasting crunch of Triscuits, but just about any cracker would do. Then again, you could make this quiche without a crust and save a bunch of time. Just put it in an oiled pie plate and bake it. Original recipe: http:/..."
