Step One: THE CRUST
1. In a food processor, combine 1.5 cups flour with a pinch of salt and a pinch of Hatch Red Chile Powder.
2. Add 10 tablespoons of butter (cubed) and pulse until blended evenly.
3. Whisk 1 egg with 2 to 3 tablespoons of ice cold water and add to the food processor. Pulse until a dough forms. If necessary, add more ice cold water to create a soft doughy consistency.
4. Press dough evenly into an 8 to 10 inch diameter pie pan.
5. Put pan with crust in the freezer for 30 minutes.
Step Two: THE FILLING
1. Preheat oven to 350℉.
2. Chop vegetables: we used 1 zucchini, 2 ears of corn, 1/2 onion, 5 cloves of garlic, and 1 cup of fresh Hatch green chile.
3. Sautée all veggies in Avocado oil until tender.
4. In a large bowl, whisk 4-5 eggs with a splash of milk.
5. Add New Mexico All Purpose Seasoning, a generous amount of black pepper, feta cheese, and your sautéed veggies. Mix until evenly blended with egg mixture.
6. Pour filling into pie crust and bake until just set.
Optional: Serve with herbed potatoes and a green salad.
