I used butter instead of shortening and used whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose flour. As other reviewers said, add the water a little bit at a time. Easy and inexpensive, no need to buy any from the store again!

Very easy and tasty recipe. I used the Pie Crust IV recipe with whole wheat flour and baked the pie crust w/o the filling for about 10-15 minutes (while preparing the filling). Otherwise I don't think the crust would've cooked enough. For the filling: I added a large potato that I chopped into small cubes and browned it with the onions and beef, definitely recommend adding the potato which adds a nice texture to the quiche. I only used half an onion, next time I will add the whole onion because I felt the onion was lost in the mix. I didn't have any broccoli, but thought that would be a nice addition as well. I added an extra egg because there was a lot of filling. To make it healthier: I used less mayo (about 1/4 cup but probably could try it w/o any mayo) and less cheese (1/2 cup each was more than enough). Easy way to use up leftover ground beef.

Delicious! I tried the recipe with lemon and then with key lime, and the key lime was impressive! The only other difference was I used about 1/2 the sour cream and thought it was better. I served it over lettuce lightly tossed in olive oil.
