• Control the Spice Level: If you want to dial down the heat, remove all the seeds from the jalapeños. For an extra kick, leave some seeds or add a pinch of chili flakes.
• Cheese Varieties: Swap out Monterey Jack or cheddar for pepper jack cheese for even more spice.
• Store Leftovers: This pie stores well in the fridge for up to 3 days. Simply reheat in the oven to enjoy the crispiness of the crust again.

Frequently Asked Questions
