Directions

In a 2-quart pan, bring water, butter, and salt to a boil.

When butter melts, remove pan from heat and add flour all at once.

Beat until well blended.

Return pan to medium heat and stir rapidly for 1 minute or until a ball forms in middle of pan and a film forms on bottom of pan.

Remove pan from heat and beat in eggs, one at a time, until mixture is smooth and glossy.

Add cheese and beat until well mixed.

Spoon into a greased 9-inch round pan with removable bottom or spring-release sides.

Spread evenly over bottom and up sides of pan.

Bake crust in a 400 degrees F oven for 40 minutes or until puffed and brown; turn off oven.

With a wooden pick, prick crust in 10 to 12 places; leave in closed oven for about 10 minutes to dry.

Remove pan from oven and cool completely.

Remove crust from pan.

In a bowl, stir all ingredients except eggs together as listed.

Coarsely chop the 6 hard-cooked eggs; gently fold into vegetable mixture.
