Chicken and Broccoli Quiche - Dinner Pie

  •  by Stacie Hemmings Haynes


    2 cups cooked chicken chopped 
  • 8 oz moz cheese
  • 8 oz sharp cheddar cheese 
  • 4 eggs beaten 
  • 4 T corn starch 
  • 3/4 cup milk
  • 1 can cream of mushroom soup (or cream of chicken) 
  • 1 box frozen chopped broccoli cooked and drained 
  • 2 frozen deep dish pie crusts
  • Mix soup and milk Add eggs, cornstarch and beat with a whisk until smooth Add chicken, Broccoli and cheeses. Add salt and pepper to taste Bake at 350 for 45 min to 1 hour
    We usually eat one and freeze one for later 
    I set my timer for 30 minutes and then check the crust. It cooks faster than the middle of the quiche so I take a piece of tinfoil and put a small hole in the middle and cover the crust so it won't burn.
  • makes 2 pies.

Cheesy Chicken Enchiladas (S)


Low carb tortillas (I used LaTortilla Factory) 3 net carbs!!
1/4 to 1/2 cup of onion, diced
4 chicken breast or a can of shredded chicken
1 can of green chillies
1 stick of butter
1 cup of sour cream
1 cup of Colby jack cheese + 1/2 cup more for the top
1 tsp of cumin
1 tsp of chili powder
1 tsp of minced garlic
salt and pepper
Cook your chicken in the skillet with some butter or you can use canned chicken like I did. The canned chicken made it one step easier.  Shred it if you cooked your chicken breast.  I mixed 1 cup of cheese in with the chicken.  I used 6 tortillas. I put this filling into the tortillas, evenly.  I wrapped each one up nicely and put them face down so they would stay shut. In a saucepan, place the butter, sour cream, cumin, chili powder, salt, pepper, green chilies, minced garlic and half an onion.  Heat until the butter is melted and the mix is smooth.  I poured this mixture over the tortillas.  I topped the tortillas with extra cheese.(about 1/2 cup)
I used a 9 by 12 glass baking dish.  350 for
