Jalapeño pie

One of our favorite dishes when we visit family is Jalapeno Pie.  My mother-in-law got this recipe from a friend and she makes it for us whenever we visit.  This year, we decided to make it for ourselves for Thanksgiving.  




Ingredients

10 oz grated cheddar cheese (or 10 oz of shredded Mexican blend cheese) 

10 oz grated mozzarella cheese 

2 eggs (You can substitute eggs with 1/3 cup of unsweetened applesauce mixed with ½ tsp. baking powder) 

1 unbaked pie shell 

Sliced Jalapeno peppers (We used the tamed kinds as they are not as spicy) 




Instruction

Preheat oven to 400

Put ½ of the cheddar cheese on the bottom of the pie crust and then ½ of the mozzarella cheese.




Spread a layer of Jalapeno Peppers.  Use as many as required to suit your taste.  




Put remaining half of mozzarella cheese on top of peppers

Mix the remaining half of the cheddar cheese with the eggs.  Mix well together and spread on top.  







Bake for 20 – 25 minutes on the lower shelf.  Make sure cheese is bubbly
