The quiche was bland. I think I needed to add more herbs and spices.

The quiche was a bit dry. I think I overcooked it. I'll try cooking it for a shorter amount of time next time.

The quiche was a bit too salty for my taste, but I think that's because I used a store-bought crust. I'll try making my own crust next time.

I'm not a fan of the herb and crab combination, but I think this quiche would be delicious with different fillings, such as spinach and feta or broccoli and cheddar.
