San Francisco Seafood Quiche

This one is a keeper! I made this recipe - with some minor adjustments - to suit what I had on hand. but the bones of this recipe are really good. had a lot of rave reviews with this recipe - had to forward it to a few people.

substituted the celery - for red and orange bell pepper
cut the wine in half - used dry rose instead of white
added 10% cream to eggs
substituted the seafood with - 2 cans of canned crab meat and one can of shrimp cocktail
substituted the swiss cheese with - yellow and white shredded cheddar and added 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese
add freshly chopped italian parsley

I have always wanted to make quiche, but was afraid to try. Then, a friend asked me to make it for Saturday brunch and I did. I can never say no when someone asks me to cook:) This recipe seemed perfect and it was. I added scallops, extra shrimp, an extra egg, used lump crab meat,a bit more wine because of the extra ingredients. Oh, I used gruyere instead of swiss. My friend was very pleased with the outcome and so was I. If you love quiche and seafood then this is certainly a recipe to try.

If I were the only one rating this I would have given it a 5, but DH and DS didnt like it as much as DD and I did. They said its not bad but not something they would request. I on the other hand thought it was GREAT. I loved the seafood in this, and the wine with the egg was a nice change of taste. Thank you so much for sharing this with us.

While the quiche baked up beautifully, we found it to be quite bland. I did add some salt and pepper and some Old Bay seasoning and it still needed more. Also, we found the wine taste to be too strong. Next time I think I will reduce the wine, maybe add some cream and definitely add more spices and seasonings. May try adding some Dijon mustard and dill.... Will have to play with it. Good base though...

Hello Leslie in Texas, this was wonderful! I love seafood! Used more than 6 oz of crab meat but it didn't change the wonder of it! Added a bit of Tabasco and it gave it a great kick! Thank you for posting this recipe :) - I doubled the recipe so I could have 2 in the freezer. Thanks so much, Diane ;)

Hey Leslie in TX, this is Leslie In MO, lol. I have been making this exact same recipe for over thirty years. My copy of the recipe came from Cosmopolitan magazine when Helen Gurley-Brown was editor, yikes, that's along time ago! I can't recommend this recipe enough, one of my favorites. I was going to post, but in researching found yours, and couldn't believe it was already here. Lol's, had to make a few changes, not because I wanted to, just out of necessity. Only had Maryland Blue Claw Crab meat, had only one pie shell, so I had to make from scratch second one and finally did not have enough mayo, so had to make my own! So much for and easy night, DH loved the quiche and it went so well with a green salad. Thanks again posting and the laughs.

This sounded like a must try recipe, and it was so good! I am thrilled I have one in the freezer for another time.
