COUNTRY SALMON PIE

     SALMON-PIE - A salmon and cheese pie flavored with sour
     cream

     This is a country cousin to the quiche-even real men will
     eat it.  My mother says this is called "country" salmon pie
     because it uses canned salmon, which is the only kind you
     can catch out in the country.

INGREDIENTS (Serves 8)
          PARMESAN CRUST
     1 1/2 cups
               flour
