Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a round 6-in (15 cm) baking pan with parchment paper.

Step 2

Press the tortilla in the baking pan, ensuring it covers the round dish.

Step 3

In a medium bowl, beat eggs with cottage cheese, shredded cheese, seasonings, salt and pepper to taste. Stir in the vegetables.

Step 4

Pour the egg mixture into the tortilla, then sprinkle the top with more shredded cheddar. Make sure you leave some space at the top, as the eggs rise while baking.

Step 5

Bake in the medium rack of a hot oven for 20-25 minutes. The tortilla quiche is ready when the egg bake is just set and no more jiggly.

Step 6

Carefully remove from the oven, then let cool for at least 5 minutes. Slice it into quarters and enjoy.
