Canned pilchard quiche
Mix some slices of bread with one egg and a little milk and line an oven proof dish with it!. Make sure the dish is greased!.
Now mix one packet of cheese/onion crisps (crumbled), one grated onion, one finely chopped tomato and a pinch of parsley!.
To that mixture add one can of pilchards and one egg and mix well!.
Place in bread lined oven dish and grill in oven until the filling is set and the crust is golden brown!.
Heat settings under 240 C works best as one does not want to burn the crust while the filling is not yet set!.
Enjoy!.

I made a great curry with canned pilchards once - the usual spices, plenty of chili, onions, garlic, a bit of tomato paste and some coconut cream to thicken!. I'd had the can in the cupboard for ages and just wanted to use it up, but it turned out delicious!. Come to think of it I might make it again!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
How about a tuna and pasta bake, using pilchards instead!?
Topped with grated cheese and a packet of crisps, I think you could be on a winner!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
