Recipe Ingredients
2 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp chili seasoning
1/4 cup cold margarine, diced
1/4 cup lard, diced
1/2 cup finely grated cheddar cheese
3 tbsp cold water
6 slice bacon, chopped
2 onion, chopped
4 oz crabmeat, flaked
3 eggs
2/3 cup half-and-half
1/2 tsp mustard powder
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
1 salt to taste
1 tomato slices (opt)
1 italian parsley sprigs (opt)
Recipe Preparation
Preheat oven to 400'F. (205'C.). In a bowl, combine flour, salt and
chili seasoning. Cut in margarine and lard until mixture resembles
bread crumbs. Add cheese and mix well. Stir in cold water and mix to
form a fairly firm dough. Knead gently on a floured surface and roll
out pastry. Set a 10" flouted flan pan with a removable bottom on a
baking sheet. Press pastry into flutes and trim edge neatly. Prick
base with a fork. Line pastry with waxed paper and fill with dried
beans.
Bake 15 minutes. Remove waxed paper and beans and bake 5-10 minutes
more or until dry and lightly golden. Fry bacon 3 minutes. Add onion;
cook 2 minutes. Remove from heat; mix with crabmeat. Spoon mixture
into flan shell. Whisk eggs, half-and-half, mustard, cayenne and
salt. Pour into flan shell. Bake 30-35 minutes or until set and
lightly golden. Garnish with tomato and parsley, if desired, and
serve warm or cold.

Food Tips of the Week
Dieting tipsIf you wish to become slim and boost your all round health, then, as any dietician will tell you, you really should eat a thoughtfully calculated sensible daily routine. At best, this should include five measures of grains and vegetables each day and also incorporate the right mix of important nutrients.
Some lower carb diet guidlines:
* Eat regular meals Most reduced carb recipes are, you won't be surpised to learn, low in carbs. We all need energy, and carbs are a quick acting energy source. A low carb diet requires great care in controlling your energy levels, as any energy contributed by non-carbohydrate sources is slower acting.
* Use reduced carb chocolate bars for cookies and muffins. Once you have converted your favorite chocolate cookie or chocolate muffins recipe using soy flour, you dont want to mix in those high carbohydrate full-sugar chocolate. Cut up a reduced carb bar of chocolate into little pieces and use that in its place.
Flavonoid foods
(inlcudes garlic, spinach, adzuki bean & tea)
The nutrients called 'flavonoids' present in these food types are thought by nutritionalists to have properties as anti-carcinogens.
Researchers researching the effects of flavonoids think they might also have numerous other healthy properties, amongst them, anti-dermatitis and antiplatelet capabilities.
The majority of these also have a low calorie count, so should be included in every diet system.
