We just had this for dinner tonight and Colin loved it so much that I wanted to make sure to post it before I forgot because this will definitely be one I'm making again! It's really easy (although all of the cooking time means it's not the world's quickest thing to throw together) and so delicious. The blog that I originally got the recipe from mentioned that this was served for breakfast, but I thought it worked equally well for dinner. Make this and you won't regret it!
1 9-inch pie shell, pre-baked (I'm sure homemade crust would be even better, but store bought worked just fine)
1/2 cup cream cheese, room temperature
2 jalapenos, seeded and diced
1/2 cup milk
1/2 cup cream
5 large eggs, lightly beaten
1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese
1 jalapeno, sliced
Preheat the oven to 350. Spread the cream cheese over the bottom of the pie crust and sprinkle with the diced jalapenos. Heat the milk and cream over medium heat until just before it boils, about 5 minutes, and transfer to a large bowl. Pour the eggs into the heated cream mixture, stirring constantly. Mix in the paprika and salt. Pour the mixture into the pie crust and bake for 30 minutes. Remove from oven, sprinkle with the cheddar cheese, arrange the jalapeno slices on top and bake until the cheese has completely melted and turned golden brown, about 15 minutes.
