Crab quiche

What I had:
  • 8 oz crab meat
  • 1 can pillsbury crescent roll
  • 1/4 cup chopped red onion
  • 1/4 cup chopped poblano peppers
  • 1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper
  • 8 eggs beaten
  • Salt, pepper, paprika to taste
  • Old Bay, as much as you can handle
What I did:
  • Sautéed the onions, and both peppers in a tablespoon of olive oil for a couple minutes
  • Added salt, pepper, paprika and mix well
  • Added the crab meat and Old Bay, tasting as I went
  • Pre-heated the oven to 375
  • Unrolled the crescents and layered a 9" pie dish, cutting and replacing as needed, pinching together any seams
  • Baked for 6 minutes
  • Whisked the sautéed mixture into the eggs, and poured into partially baked crust
  • Baked for 40-45 minutes till edges are brown and the filling is set
  • Enjoyed with my favorite hot sauce
