Chicken and Cheese Quesadilla Pie

This is a quiche/quesadilla which means you can eat it for breakfast or dinner. We chose dinner and we all loved it. The flavors are simple but tasty. The original recipe calls for jarred jalapenos but I knew no one in my family would go for that so I left them out.
