Crab Quiche FLorentine - esgunn - 02-04-2008 Copied from the original post - since everyone is talking about it....It took me a while to find it, but I did - I went looking for it because I had missed it the first time around. Here's another one that I have not tried yet......but plan to.....we really need to start eating lower fat here. I'll let you know when I make this, if you want to wait for a review. * Exported from MasterCook * Crab Quiche Florentine Recipe By : Serving Size : 6 Preparation Time :0:00 Categories : Dec '96 Main Dish Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method -------- ------------ -------------------------------- Cooking spray 3/4 cup (3 ounces) grated Gruyère cheese 8 ounces lump crabmeat -- shell pieces removed and drained 1/2 cup chopped onion 4 cups coarsely chopped spinach 1/8 teaspoon dried tarragon 1/8 teaspoon Old Bay seasoning 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg 1/8 teaspoon pepper 1 cup evaporated skim milk 1/2 cup egg substitute Cherry tomatoes -- quartered (optional) 1 (7-ounce) can refrigerated breadstick dough Unroll dough, separating into strips.

Re: Crab Quiche FLorentine - Gourmet_Mom - 02-04-2008 Erin, this is it. Yummy! Don't forget to spray your pie pan...don't ask me how I know...LOL! (Only real problem was the rim...and that was very minor.) It turned out very pretty. I still think it would make a great appy. And served with champagne as Jean served it Sunday morning...heaven. Re: Crab Quiche FLorentine - cjs - 02-05-2008 It's a wonderful, fast little dish, Erin! It sure would be a nice dish for a weeknight dinner - for those still working (or home schooling). I just had sliced tomatoes with it and it was a nice combination along with a fruit platter. |
