THE BEST & EASIEST VEGAN QUICHE RECIPE (TOFU)

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 400°
• Break apart the tofu and add to your food processor along with the nutritional yeast, baking powder, salt, black salt, granulated garlic, granulated onion, and miso. Process until completely broken down, it will look like tiny little crumbles
• Now add the plant milk, vinegar, Tamari and liquid smoke. Process until it is paste like. It will be really thick. You will have to stop and scrape down side a few times and push the mixture around with your spatula to help get it going. This will take a few minutes. If you find it is not coming together then add one more tablespoon of plant milk. (this has to be very thick for the best texture when cooked so if you can avoid adding additional liquid don't). Set aside
• Set a large non stick skillet to medium heat. once hot add the onions and peppers. Saute over medium heat for 3 minutes. add the mushrooms, garlic and rosemary. Cook for 3 minutes or so until mushrooms are completely cooked down and have released their juices. Stir in the spinach and cook for another minute or so until it is wilted. Set aside to cool for 1-2 minutes.
• Add the tofu filling to the cooked vegetables in the skillet. Mix well. (if using vegan cheese stir it in now). Set aside.
• Place the puff pastry sheet over the pie plate and mold to fit. Trim the edges with a knife and flute them if you like.
• Pour the quiche filling into the crust, making sure it's evenly distributed and pressed down. Add the tomatoes pushing them down slightly into the filling. Season with a little salt and pepper.
• Bake uncovered for 1 hour. (Towards end of baking, if your crust is getting to brown for your liking, loosely tent the edges with tin foil). Cool for 20 minutes before serving so the filling sets. Enjoy hot or cold for breakfast or brunch! Delicious served with my breakfast potatoes, restaurant style salsa and a green salad! For step by step photos see above post ????

SIMPLE TOFU QUICHE

Steps:

• CRUST: Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (232 C) and lightly spritz a 9.5-inch pie pan (as original recipe is written // adjust if altering batch size) with non-stick spray.
• Grate potatoes and measure out 3 cups (amount as original recipe is written // adjust if altering batch size). Then transfer to a clean towel and firmly squeeze out excess moisture. Add to pie dish and drizzle with melted vegan butter and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Toss to coat, then use fingers to press into the pan and up the sides to form an even layer.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown all over. Set aside. When you take out the crust, lower oven heat to 400 degrees F (209 C).
• VEGETABLES: Prep veggies and garlic and add to a baking sheet. Drizzle with 2 Tbsp olive oil, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and toss to coat. Place in the oven and bake until soft and golden brown (a total of 20-30 minutes). Set aside and lower oven heat to 375 degrees F (190 C).
• FILLING: To prepare tofu filling, add drained tofu to a food processor with nutritional yeast, hummus, salt and pepper. Run the food processor on high until the filling is silky smooth. Set aside.
• Remove veggies from oven, add to a mixing bowl, and top with the tofu mixture. Toss to coat, then add to the crust and spread into an even layer.
• Bake quiche at 375 degrees F (190 C) for a total of 30-40 minutes or until the top appears golden brown and firm. If the crust begins to get too brown, loosely tent the edges with foil.
• Let cool briefly, and then serve with fresh herbs or green onion.
• Store leftovers loosely covered in the fridge for up to two days. Reheat in the microwave or in a 350-degree F (176 C) oven.
