CHEESY CHEDDAR CRAB QUICHE
Fix it and forget it for 45 minutes. I combined ideas from several recipes to create this somewhat lighter version of quiche for brunch, lunch, or dinner. Elegant, high in protein, high in flavor. Serves well as a main course or entire meal.

Steps:
- Prepare the crust, if using frozen, thaw completely on counter before filling.
- Preheat oven to 350°.
- Beat the eggs, stir in the shredded cheese, half-n-half, Old Bay seasoning, and shredded crab meat.
- Old Bay Seasoning contains both salt and pepper so you may not need to add additional salt or pepper. I don't.
- Pour into unbaked pie shell.
- Place on center oven rack for 35 minutes. Cover just the edges of crust with foil if they are browning too quickly.
- Check center of quiche, if jiggly, bake 10 more minutes or until center is done to your preference.
- Let stand for 5 minutes, serve hot with tomato slices or salad.
CHEDDAR CRAB QUICHE
For a completely vegetarian quiche, leave the crab out. I used this recipe for a friend that was having some problems with finding a lower fat recipe, using reduced fat cheese and liquid egg substitute. Obviously we can add the fat back in if you like!

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Heavily spray a 12-cup nonstick muffin pan with nonstick cooking spray.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the bacon and cook until crispy, about 6 minutes. Remove the bacon to a plate with a slotted spoon and pour 2 to 3 tablespoons of the bacon fat (see Cook's Note) into a large, heatproof bowl. To the bacon fat, add the crushed corn flakes and Cheddar. Stir the mixture together until it starts to clump. Press the mixture into the cups of the prepared muffin pan. Bake until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Remove and cool slightly on a baking rack in the pan.
- Return the skillet to medium-high heat and add the butter. Once the butter is melted, add the onions and cook until softened and starting to brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Sprinkle on the mustard, salt, paprika and pepper. Stir the collard greens into the onion mixture. Continue cooking the greens, stirring occasionally, until wilted, 5 to 6 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
- Whisk together the half-and-half and eggs, then stir in the greens. Pour some of the egg mixture into each crust in the pan to come about three-quarters of the way up and sprinkle on the bacon. Bake until the egg has set and doesn't jiggle, 15 to 20 minutes. Set the mini quiches on a baking rack for 10 minutes to cool. Serve warm or at room temperature.
