Ingredients:
1 (9 inch) pie crusts
1 garlic clove
3/4 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon black pepper
8 ounces monterrey jack cheese, grated
Directions:
1. Mince garlic and mash to a paste with slat using side of a large knife.
2. Discard seeds, ribs, and stems from chilies, then pat dry if needed. Cut into 1/3 inch strips.
3. Whisk together eggs, milk, cream, onion, garlic paste, and pepper in bowl until just combined. Pour into pie shell.
