I have to say, I was a little cautious about this one. I asked some coworkers if they ever tried a crab quiche, but none had. The taste was so mild, yet wonderful. Try this one, you won't be sorry. Didn't have the green onions, so I used shallots, came out great.

The texture of this dish was nice but the taste was too bland, even for a quiche. If I were to make it again, I would add a dash of salt to enhance the flavors. Also, the dish didn't showcase the flavor of the crab as much as I had hoped for.

I felt this recipe should have more egg in it. I added a little bit more crab than it called for and I think that was the right call. Overall, an excellent easy recipe.

Great basic quiche recipe! We left out the pie crust and added a little thyme and nutmeg. Cooked perfectly and devoured in minutes.

I give it 4 stars because my husband and I have very different impressions of this; he didn't care for it and I absolutely love it. To him the egg & crab didn't meld well with the seasonings, I thought the flavors popped nicely.

This is an AWESOME dish! I made a couple of changes: I used milk as the recipe called for (2%); but I also added some deveined salad shrimp, portabella mushrooms, thinly sliced white onions (instead of the scallions - I forgot to get them when I went to the store), 16 oz. of real lump crab meat, 1 tsp of Zatarains liquid crab boil and Old Bay Garlic and Herb Seasoning. It wasn't as colorful as the one in the picture 'cos pretty much all of the ingredients were light or white, but it was better even than I expected!

Overall I enjoyed this quiche! I believe simple flavors are best especially when you have an ingredient as delicate as crab. It is very easy to overpower crab with aromatics losing the essence of the crab itself. This recipe allows the flavor of the crab to shine through and is delicious. With that being said, I am from the DC/Maryland area and couldn't resist adding a few dashes of old bay. Not enough to over power it but just enough to get a hint of the flavor. I will say that I think that the cheese isn't necessary in this dish, and traditionally crab isn't paired with cheese. The next time I make this I will eliminate the cheese all together as I believe it actually detracted from the dish. I will make this again with said changes. Thanks for the recipe!

I wasn't crazy about this recipe but my husband really liked it. I did modify the recipe quite a bit. I added Old Bay seasoning, black pepper, garlic powder, and a dash of Tabasco. I also used really claw meat crab instead of the canned stuff. I don't think I will be making this again unless my husband request it.

I made this recipe and it was very good. I did use light mayo and it turned out perfect. No problems at all. Next time I'll add just a little bit of Old Bay but mainly because I'm a Marylander.

ALMOST five stars. Although the quiche turned out to be very fluffy, smooth, and pretty tasty anyhow, it definitely needed a bit more flavor, and I wished I had some hot sauce on hand. I substituted cheddar cheese for swiss, diced yellow onions for green, and (as recommended) added an extra egg and a tablespoon of garlic powder. Don't skimp on pepper - I was afraid my guests would be overpowered by it, but it was nowhere close to enough.

With the recommendations, this quiche turned out fantastic! We added the garlic and hot sauce, and substituted swiss for cheddar. We added an extra egg, and an extra can of crab. We baked it for a full hour, and even though the crust got a little dark, it turned out crumbly, buttery, and delicious!!!

It was a hit at the river house and at work. My husband doesn't like quiche, but he ate this one up. Followed the advise on some of the other reviews and put 3 eggs, 2 6oz cans of crab,2-3 cloves of garlic, hot sauce, cayenne to taste. But I neede my veggies, so I shredded zuccini which my husband could hardly tell, and a little of the old bay seasoning. We couln't gobble it up fast enough. I made 2 of them, and shared and everyone wanted the recipe.Marcie

This actually turned out really well. I added the extra egg, as suggested by many reviewers, but instead of using regular mayo, I substituted it for Wasabi Mayo. It gave the quiche a delicious little extra kick.

I didn't really care for this. Added 1 extra egg as many other reviewers did. If you like crabcakes you will probably like this, if you don't than you probably won't like this since it is very similar in texture to a crabcake. I did have to cook around an hour until it was done.

I have been searching FOREVER for the perfect crab quiche recipe. This one gets 4 stars "as is" but 5 stars with modifications. (I read ALL of the 282 reviews!) So (1) decide if the crab is the focal point or just an ingredient. If the focus, you must use 2 cans of lump crab. If it's just an ingredient, 1 can of claw meat is OK. I used the 2 cans of lump. (2) I don't care for melted Swiss cheese (too tangy) & cheddar in a quiche can get oily when it melts, but I do like its flavor. So---I used 1 cup of fine shred cheddar and 1 cup of crumbled goat cheese, which presented a really good texture & flavor. (3) For sub-flavors without detracting from the crab: I VERY THINLY sliced about a dozen small button mushrooms, shredded 1/2 of a medium yellow onion, and saute'd them together in a tblspn each of olive oil & butter, seasoned with a little celery salt. Added about 1 1/2 cups baby spinach to the saute and cooked down . Layered into the pie crust in order: crab, mushroom mixture, cheeses. (4) Combined 4 eggs in a blender with 1 cup of half & half, dash of salt, cayenne & dry mustard. Pour over & baked 45 minutes at 350. Result: Perfect quiche where the CRAB is the star!!!

I've been using this recipe forever, and I always get high compliments! It's a lot of reward for such a little bit of work. I use a little less onion, and I shred the cheese, but other than that, it's perfect!

This quiche was a huge hit at my house! It seemed to disappear before I could turn around twice! I used lump crab meat from a local restaurant and followed the directions exactly. You're definitely paying a little more for good quality crab meat, but it is WELL WORTH IT! Excellent recipe!
