You might have noticed, I mention my boys quite often during blog posts. My boys are bottomless pits who are always willing to help taste test and critique whatever recipe I’m working on. My daughter though, she’s a little bit of a different story. You see, at the end of Christmas break she decided to become a vegetarian. It’s been a big adjustment for her, well, and for me too. Since she’s made the jump to eating only vegetarian, I’ve moved to only eating meat at dinner time through the season of Lent. She and I work together to plan out and cook her vegetarian meals. Spicy and smoky chipotles bring the flavor in this veggie loaded Southwestern Chipotle Quiche.

It’s actually been a great experience for us both. She’s learning how to cook and plan healthy meals, and having a pal to cook with makes it easier to stay with my Lenten diet. Here is our most recent vegetarian triumph, a southwestern quiche. This southwestern quiche is brimming with veggies and great smoky chipotle flavor. It starts with a hashbrown potato crust, the crust is then filled with corn, black beans, green onions, cilantro, and cheddar before the egg mixture is poured over the top.

Before serving I like to sprinkle on cilantro and fresh sliced avocado. So if you’ve cut the meat out of your diet for Lent, or if you’ve cut the meat out forever, then this is a perfect dish for you. It’s so hearty and filling you won’t feel like you’re missing anything. Gather up some friends and celebrate this Lenten dish together! Spicy and smoky chipotles bring the flavor in this veggie loaded Southwestern Chipotle Quiche.

Let me tell you a little secret tip for what I do with my leftover peppers and adobo sauce. I love this stuff! First I run them through the food processor and then I pour the pureed peppers and adobo sauce into an ice cube tray to freeze. Then later when I’m making salsa, chili, or tacos I just pop a frozen chipotle cube in for that great smoky, spicy chipotle flavor. It’s such an easy way to add a ton of flavor to a dish, LA MORENA® peppers are the best quality and the only brand I buy!
