Tofu Quiche

This is a pretty simple recipe that can be easily adapted to personal tastes.


OVEN 375°

The Crust!
*1/2 cup all-purpose flour
*1/2 cup whole wheat flour
*1/4 cup cold margarine, cut up
*2 to 5 tbsp cold water

1. In a food processor, combine the flour and margarine until coarse and crumbly.
2. Add the cold water, one tablespoon at a time, until the dough becomes soft but not sticky.
3. Roll out on a floured surface and then press into a 9-inch pie pan. Set aside.

The Filling!
*8 oz firm tofu
*1/2 cup unsweetened soymilk
*1/4 cup flour
*2 tsp prepared mustard
*1 tbsp garlic granules
*2 tsp paprika
*1 tsp salt
*1 tsp black pepper
*3ish cups chopped vegetables of your choice (I'm fond of broccoli, mushrooms, spinach, green onion, and red bell pepper)

1. In a food processor, combine the tofu, soymilk, flour, mustard, and spices until very smooth. Pour into a mixing bowl.
2. Add the chopped veggies to the tofu mixture and stir until well-combined.
3. Spoon the filling into the crust and spread until smooth and even on top.
4. Put in preheated oven and bake about 45 minutes, or until browned on top.


Tyler and I followed this up with some homemade chocolate chip cookies. Yaaaay!
