Crabmeat is very plentiful here in Maryland, and this dish is one of my favorite ways to eat it. My sister-in-law Darlene gave me this recipe, and that simple gesture helped make me feel part of the family.

1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 large eggs, beaten
1/2 cup whole milk
2 cans (6 ounces each) flaked crabmeat, drained
1/3 cup chopped green onions
1 tablespoon minced fresh parsley
2 cups shredded Swiss cheese
1 unbaked pastry shell (9 inches)

Directions

In a large bowl, combine the mayonnaise, flour, eggs and milk. Stir in the crab, onion, parsley and cheese. Spoon into the pastry shell.
Bake at 350° for 1 hour or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.

I tried this recipe last night and it was fab. I did tweek it a little bit. I didn't use the parsley, but added frozen chopped spinach. I squeezed all the water out, and used a third of the box. I also used to taste, salt, pepper and garlic powder. I only had a can of refrigerated crab claw meat 16 oz, so I used the whole can. I can't wait to make this again. I will shield the crust next time, as it tried to get too brown. Great, great recipe. Bc

Tried this for the first time tonight. Loved it. I used imitation crab meat. It got a little too brown, but was delicious anyway. Next time I might shield it for the last 15 mins with foil.

Very yummy quiche! My husband is not a quiche fan, but he loved this one and almost ate half the pie. I used imitation crab meat, dried parsley, and what ever cheese I had on hand. It still turned out delicious. Glad I made it.

Was not edible. Turned out to be a soggy mess. Very disappointing.
