SPECIAL EDITION: vegan quiche! / january 1st, 2010

so last week lizzie decided not to eat dairy anymore except for quiche night. of course.
but joanne had a good recipe for a vegan quiche so we gave it a shot!

crust: the same ol' new awesome gluten free crust recipe from last week
recipe: from a PETA cook book:

1 TBLS oil
1 medium onion, diced
1 bell pepper, chopped (red or orange looks nice!)
1 cup chopped broccoli
1 cup chopped mushrooms
1 lb of firm tofu
pinch of nutmeg
1/2 tsp tumeric
1 TBLS or more basil
1/2 tsp salt
pepper to taste
maybe a little oregano?
1/2 cup soy or rice milk

-Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
-Heat oil in a skillet and saute the onion, mushrooms, broccoli and
mushrooms until cooked, about 8-10 minutes.
-In a food processor, mix up the rest of the ingredients (tofu, spices and
"milk")
-Stir the veggies into the tofu mixture and then pour into crust
-Bake for 30 minutes

* I think the quiche tastes even better the next day after the flavors
have settled and done their magic.

it was really awesome. tofu is no egg, but it held it's own. thanks joanne!
