Salmon Quiche Recipe
This is a quick and easy breakfast, lunch or dinner. Serve with fresh fruit for breakfast, nice salad, veggies and/or bread for lunch or dinner. My 6 yr old son thinks its a crabcake pie, that's ok with me if it gets him to eat it. I use cleaned canned salmon if you don't mind cleaning and deboning you can get 1 lg can of uncleaned salmon.
Ingredients
- 1 - Unbaked deep dish pie crust 9" or 10"
- 1 large sweet onion diced
- 1-2 tbsp of butter
- 2 cups of grated swiss cheese
- 2 - 5oz cans of deboned cleaned Salmon
- 3 eggs
- 1/2 cup Mayo
- 1 cup half n half (milk is okay too)
- 2-3 tbsp cornstarch
- salt and pepper, lemon pepper
Directions
- Preheat oven 350
- Poke holes in the frozen pie shell along the bottom and sides and set aside
- Diced the onion and saute in the butter till soft and tender and a bit of salt and pepper. Remove from heat.
- Drain salmon (clean if needed) flake it into the onions and butter.
- In a med bowl whisk eggs and mayo then whisk in half and half and cornstarch. Add more salt and lemon pepper to taste.
- Stir half the swiss cheese into the salmon onion mixture and pour into pie shell.
- Add remaining cheese to the egg mixture and pour over salmon. Carefully move salmon mixture around to even out.
- Bake for 45 to 50 mins till top is lighty browned and toothpick in center is clean
- Remove from oven and let cool 10-15mins

- I place the pie shell on a baking sheet, and I place foil under the pie and fold the edges up creating a bowl effect. Its good for any spills or boils overs easy clean up.
