Quiche and Tell: Crab Quiche

I love quiche, so I made this old one from my

 recipe file over the weekend. Crab Quiche.

This yummy quiche has a few unusual ingredients.

If you have a piecrust ready, the rest of the 

ingredients are quickly mixed together. 

Shredded cheddar cheese, eggs,
sour cream, a can of French fried onions, 

a can of crabmeat, and seasonings. 

 Mix that all together.

 Pour into an unbaked pie shell.

 Bake for 35 minutes.

 A green salad or tomato salad would be a 

nice side. We had tea, but wine would be nice

too for company. A chocolate chip bundt

cake for dessert, company or not!

 Brunch or lunch.

Leftovers for the next day...a bonus! 

Ok, here's the recipe, because I quiche and tell!

Crab Quiche

3 XL eggs slightly beaten

1 can French fried onions, crushed

1 can crabmeat, drained 
1 C sour cream

1 C shredded cheddar cheese, 4-oz

garlic or seasoned salt, pepper, Old Bay

(season as desired)

Mix all ingredients and pour into an

unbaked pie shell. Bake @350 for 35 minutes.

Let rest for 5 minutes before cutting.

Enjoy!

Fiesta Quiche

I was in the mood for a quiche for lunch. 

Haven't made a quiche in ages and then I see 

several quiches this week on blogs. 

I had to make one. Luckily I had all the

 ingredients in the house for my Fiesta Quiche.

It's quick and easy. Just mix everything

together and pour into a prepared crust.

Use a large deep dish pie pan.

 I still had one store crust. 

Just unroll and into the pan it goes.

 It's great leftover the next day too. 

You can even cheat and make it without a crust

.....if you're in a hurry.

Fiesta Quiche

5 eggs

1-1/2 C whole milk

1/4 C salsa

1 can diced green chilies

1/2 C finely chopped onion 

2 C  monterey jack/cheddar cheese

9" unbaked deep pie shell

pinch of cumin, salt, chili powder, opt.

Whisk the eggs well. Whisk in the milk,

salsa, onion, green chilies, and 

optional seasonings, Stir in the cheese.

Shape the pie shell into a deep dish pan.

Pour in the filling. Bake @350 45 minutes

until puffed and center is firm.

Let cool for 10 minutes before slicing.

Enjoy!

Cinnamon Roll Swedish Pancakes

I used my Swedish Pancake recipe to make

little mini cinnamon roll pancakes.

 After you make the Swedish Pancakes, stack them

 and keep them warm in the oven with your plates.

 One at a time very lightly brush with melted butter.

 Sprinkle with 1 t cinnamon sugar mixture.

 Roll up.

 Slice and stack on end.

  To serve just dust with a little powdered sugar.

 You can also drizzle with a little glaze. 

We prefer just the powdered sugar.

 Serve on the heated plates.

 Very yummy!
