CRUSTLESS CRAB QUICHE



Crustless Crab Quiche image

This is a lowfat, delicious quiche! I am always asked for this recipe (I serve often at brunches). Can be made ahead & baked next day, and/or frozen. Leftovers are wonderful when warmed in microwave and placed on toasted english muffin. My 2 year-old loves it too. NOTE: Do not use real crab meat; it will not come out the same.

Here is an EatingWell's take on a favorite seafood-brunch dish that's usually dripping with saturated fat. This version gets its richness from cottage cheese and yogurt, with a small amount of real Parmesan and Cheddar.They use a little of a great-tasting cheese goes a long way in creating a full flavor.

CRUSTLESS CRAB AND MUSHROOM QUICHE



Crustless Crab and Mushroom Quiche image

This is fabulous! I got this from my mom, but I'm not sure where she got it originally. Be sure to get the mushrooms and crab blotted as dry as you can -- the secret to this quiche's success. This is great straight from the oven, but it's at least as good at room temperature, even the next day, which makes it a good choice for buffets and potlucks.
