Shrimp Pie (Scandanavian)

"I suppose you could cheat on this crust, but it is very easy to make, it's simply pressed into a deep-dish pie plate, no rollling out of the dough is needed. Judging from the other reviews on myrecipes.com, I advise to use a glass pie pan. It also might take more than 40 minutes to set up. Like a quiche, I can imagine adding onions, shrooms, broccoli, etc..., possibilites are endless. This also warms up well for lunch the next day. Adapted from Cooking Light, June 2005.

  1. So good! I did cheat and use a store bought crust. That made this quick and easy to put together. Great mild flavor combination. Made for ZWT 6.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

<p>Hello all, being from California, I can honestly say I am a foodie. You can walk by construction workers here and hear them saying things like, So I used some fresh garlic and olive oil, then threw the rest into the pan to sautee. LOL I love all kinds of food, and trying to eat healthier as I get older, but still indulge in the occasional deep-fried food or sweet. <br />I LOVE this site! I have 3 or 4 other food sites such as Epicurious and Food Network, but I always come back here! The ease and all of the features just can't be beat. <br />Thanks Zaar and I look forward to participating more.</p>
