Salmon Quiche Recipe

Salmon Quiche RecipePhoto by: Taste of Home Salmon Quiche Recipe Rating 4

Meet the Cook: This recipe came to me from my mother - it's the kind you request after just one bite! Unlike some quiches, it's also hearty enough that it appeals equally to both woman and men. Cooking is something that I've always liked. I pore over cookbooks the way other people read novels! In addition, I collect antique kitchen utensils. My husband and I have one son, 12. -Deanna Baldwin, Bermuda Dunes, California

This recipe was very good. This was my first time making quiche and I couldn't find a 10inch crust so I made it with the 9inch deep dish. It was a little full and I had to cook it longer, but it still turned good.

This was my first quiche to make. It was pretty easy to make considering my inexperience with cooking. I definitely recommend getting salmon that says it is cleaned, free of bones/skin/etc. The first can I opened was a 14 oz can which ended up having skin and bones still in it, so I could not use it. The quiche turned out great though!
