Although puff pastry is delicious I wouldn't necessarily use it for a quiche although it's not unheard of.
Here is a really simple recipe for a savoury crust I got from Jamie Oliver. It's not at all fussy and you can use a food processor to make it.
-500 grams unbleached flour sifted
-250 grams vegetable shortening
-finely chopped herbs such as dill, parsley, chives (optional)
-2 organic eggs
-splash of milk
1. sift the flour
2. combine flour and shortening in the food processory
3. In a seperate bowl whisk the herbs, eggs, and milk, and add to the food processor
4. put on a floured surface and press it together - do not knead the dough!
5. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill for 2 hours before using.
In this case after I chill it I would blind bake it and let it cool before I added the egg mixture. Good luck, it's not as hard as you think.
