This great quiche recipe is perfect when you make it with an herb flavored crust. It is a traditional crust recipe seasoned with Italian Seasoning which I share the recipe at the end.
You can make this as
an appetizer to serve at a family gathering this fall or as a brunch item
making it in a square shape rather than pie shaped.

HERBED CRUST
½ cup sifted flour
¼ tsp salt
1 tsp Backyard Patch Italian Seasoning
½ cup firm butter
¼ cup cold milk
Combine flour,
salt and Italian seasoning. Cut in
butter with knives or pastry cutter until particles are the size of peas. Sprinkle with cold milk, adding just enough
to make a stiff dough. Shape into a
square and roll on a floured board into a sheet about 12 by 16 inches. Fold into thirds and lift into a 9x14x2 inch
baking dish or 9 x 13 metal pan.
Unfold. Fit carefully into the
dish, trimming edges with the top of dish.
Fold crust down ¼ inch to form a rim and press with tines of a fork.
