Directions
You Pick the Veggies Vegan Quiche, If ever a recipe was in need of an extreme make-over, it’s the quiche Exit all those high-fat, high-cholesterol ingredients and enter a fabulous new recipe that tastes great, is actually healthy for you and best of all, is quick to put together when you use a prepared pie crust From the book Quick Fix Vegetarian by Robin Robertson Be creative with your veggies, asparagus, spinach, sun dried tomatoes, artichokes Or skip the veggies and use some tempeh bacon or TVP crumbles So many options! Note, if you use silken tofu, you may want to add 1/4c thickener such as cornstarch or arrowroot, What a great quiche recipe! It came out so tasty with a wonderful custardy filling that reminded me a lot of traditional egg based quiches So great! The seasonings are a wonderful starting point, I especially enjoyed the mustard! To complement the veggies used (carrots the first time round and zucchini the second time round), I added some more garlic, cayenne pepper, rosemary and black pepper I only had 1/2 the tofu needed and no nutritional yeast, but I threw everything together and it worked out perfectly nonetheless 🙂 I had some hard-boiled eggs leftover (Im not a vegan) and so I added them to the quiche (making it non-vegan) I hope that was alright and did not totally destroy the purpose of the recipes The second time I left them out and added more veggies and that was great, too THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing this wonderful recipe with us, hon It is my new go-to vegan quiche recipe and I shall make it often again For the crust used 1/2 of this fantastic recipe: Recipe #282494Made and reviewed for Veggie Swap # 48 August 2012
