Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pie Crust

    Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). If using a homemade pie crust, roll it out and place it into a 9-inch pie dish. If using store-bought, fit it into the dish as per instructions.

  2. 2

    Mix the Filling

    In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and heavy cream until well blended. Stir in the lump crabmeat, shredded Swiss cheese, diced red onion, and chopped fresh herbs. Season with salt and black pepper to taste.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Quiche

    Pour the crab mixture into the prepared pie crust, spreading it evenly.

  4. 4

    Bake

    Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the quiche is set and lightly golden on top. A knife inserted into the center should come out clean.

  5. 5

    Prepare the Salad

    While the quiche is baking, toss the mixed greens with olive oil and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Once the quiche is done, let it cool for a few minutes before slicing. Serve warm with the dressed salad on the side.
