Tofu Spinach Quiche

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

    1 pie crust- use a frozen one or make one with your favorite recipe
    about 5 oz/ half a package of cheddar soy cheese- Follow Your Heart brand works great
    2 cups chopped frozen spinach, cooked and drained
    1 medium onion, chopped
    4-5 cloves garlic, minced
    1 10-oz package firm silken tofu
    1/4 cup tahini
    2 tablespoons soy sauce
    1 tablespoon white miso
    4 scallions, chopped
    olive oil
    pepper and paprika to taste

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

1. Saute onions and garlic in olive oil.

2. In a blender, mix together tofu, tahini, soy sauce, and miso.

3. Mix the onions, tofu mixture, spinach, and scallions together in a bowl. 

4. Grate the soy cheese and add most of that to the mixture as well, reserving a little bit for the top of the quiche.

5. Add pepper and paprika to taste.  A few dashes of each should be good.

6. Spread the mixture evenly in the pie crust.  Sprinkle remaining soy cheese on top.

7. Bake in 350 degree oven for one hour.

Enjoy!!

I made this last night and it was super good, even to my boyfriend who informed me that he is a "quiche connaisseur."  It didn't really slice and serve as a quiche, and kinda fell apart.  But who care what it looks like Smiley Very good recipe!

This was excellent. I love a good quiche and this was totally satisfying. However, make sure to press the tofu first, otherwise it will be more like pudding than quiche. I made that mistake with my first pie, but the second came out firm.

this is a great recipe, I did actually press the tofu but BE CAREFUL not to press it too much, I put it in a colander with some heavy plates on it but this dried it out too much and meant I had to add more soya milk when i mixed it all. but that's not your fault haha
I added some sweet red pepper to this recipe cos all the best quiches have red pepper. A good thing to do is to taste it while you are making it cos if it tastes good cold it'll taste good hot.
The Tahini was an EXCELLENT touch!!

I made 3 of these quiches at once, which took 2 packets of tofu, for the cheese I used Cheezly (cheddar style) which is all I could get here in the UK, but it doesnt melt in the oven, does melt in the microwave tho... weird.

My friends (mostly vegetarians or meat eaters) said this was better than yucky eggy quiche it was delicious and also fun and easy to make. well done!!!
