Crab & Asparagus Quiche Recipe
Recipe
Ingredients
1 8 pate brisee or regular pie crust
1 cup crab meat, chopped
1 3/4 cup milk, scalded
3 eggs, beaten
10 asparagus spears, tips reserved
4 oz parmesan cheese
1 dash nutmeg and cayenne pepper
1 salt to taste
Recipe
Preparation
Preheat oven to 375. Place crab meat in bottom of pastry shell. Cut
bottom parts of asparagus spears into half-inch slices and scatter
over crab. Scatter parmesan over asparagus. Beat eggs and milk
together, and season to taste with nutmeg, cayenne and salt. Pour
over crab/asparagus mixture. Arrange reserved asparagus tips in a
spoke-like pattern on top. Bake in preheated oven until set (about 45
minutes to an hour). Let sit for about 15 minutes before serving.
Next time, I might substitute Swiss cheese for at least part of the
Parmesan (didn't have any handy, and at 1 ayem, wasn't gonna make a
run to Kroger to get any).

A few tips on healthy eating
In planning a diet, the important thing is to also endeavour to restrict your ingestion of refined carbohydrates, salt and fats.
The argument against low carb diets
Its extremely popular, but it is truly safe for you?
Most of the negative side effects stated, such as tiredness, bowel disorders, or headaches seem to pass quickly, but critics contend that low carb diets are not without permanently harmful side effects.
Whilst there is some evidence that indicates that reduced carbohydrate diets may help eliminate fat, some of this evidence has proved to be controversial between nutrition experts, and their safety record has been brought into question
