Crab and Broccoli Quiche

A friend made this delicious crab and broccoli quiche a few weeks ago for our dinner.  Just absolutely delicious and rich and creamy and ........perfect.

You will need the pastry for one quiche.  Store bought or use this recipe for the crust.

2 cups flour

3/4 cup Crisco

Cut the flour and Crisco together in a medium bowl until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add remaining ingredients and mix together until a smooth dough forms. Form into a ball and chill 2 or 3 hours.

Remove from refrigerator and roll out into a circle that can be easily fitted into your baking dish. Bake 6 minutes at 350 degrees.
