[quote=Anonymous]I always use a frozen pie crust and have never pre-baked.  I'm suprised you've had trouble, OP, because I think quiche is so forgiving.  I make it at least a couple times a month and have never measured anything and it comes out fine.  You just need to make sure you pre-cook veggies to get the water out.  If you are using something really wet, like spinach, you can add a TB of flour to the egg mixture and that will soak up some of the excess moisture.

This is what I do-- no formal recipe, but very simple:

Preheat oven to 350.

Saute or steam the veggies I'm using.  Pat dry on a paper towel if needed.  Put veggies in the bottom of the pie crust.

Whisk about 5 eggs (depending on size) in a bowl.  Add a dash of milk, and some salt and pepper.  Whisk again.

Add a big handful of shredded cheese to the egg mixture, stir.

Pour egg mixture into pie crust.  Sprinkle shredded parmesan cheese on the top.

Place on a cookie sheet (because those aluminum pie pans are kind of flimsy) and bake for about 35-40 minutes.

The quiche is done when the cheese on top starts getting brown, and a toothpick inserted into the egg comes out clean.

Voila!  Easy.[/quote]
