The best vegan quiche<\/h3>\n

Quiche is one of the first dishes I ever created after going vegan over fifteen years ago, and I\u2019ve spent more than a decade perfecting the recipe<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

This savory eggless quiche is packed with protein, vegetables, and nutrition. Yet it tastes so delicious<\/strong> that you will never miss the heavy cream or eggs.<\/p>\n

Each cheesy bite transports you to a fancy French caf\u00e9<\/strong>. Only once the entire pie disappears will you realize you\u2019re actually just at home in your kitchen.<\/p>\n

I make the recipe for my own family at least once a month and hope you enjoy it as much as we do!<\/p>\n

Easy vegan quiche ingredients<\/h3>\n

The recipe calls for diced vegetables, tofu, spices, nutritional yeast or vegan cheese, and an optional crust.<\/p>\n

Veggies \u2013 <\/strong>The best thing about this recipe is how simple it is to customize.<\/p>\n

I used mushrooms, red bell peppers, and spinach this time. You may substitute other raw or roasted vegetables, such as asparagus, leeks, sundried tomatoes, broccoli, zucchini, kale, eggplant, or fresh garlic.<\/p>\n

Tofu \u2013<\/strong> To whip up a quiche with no eggs, tofu is a great substitute.<\/p>\n

I highly recommend shelf stable Mori-Nu silken extra firm tofu. If you cannot find it, refrigerated firm tofu works. I\u2019ve also included a version that uses Just Egg, for those who prefer a recipe without tofu.<\/p>\n

Spices \u2013<\/strong> Add depth of flavor with onion powder, ground turmeric, black pepper, salt, and fresh or ground rosemary. Throw in a pinch of garlic powder or cayenne if desired.<\/p>\n

Cheese \u2013<\/strong> Plant based shredded cheese or superfood nutritional yeast give this French tart its traditional cheesy taste. You can buy nutritional yeast at most grocery stores.<\/p>\n

Optional ingredients \u2013<\/strong> Add plant based bacon or ham for a vegan Quiche Lorraine.<\/p>\n

Or garnish your tofu quiche with sliced cherry tomatoes and fresh basil or green onions immediately before baking.<\/p>\n

Want a soy free vegan quiche? <\/p>\n

Stir 1 1\/2 cups Just Egg with 3\/4 cup diced vegetables, 1\/2 cup vegan cheese, 1\/2 tsp salt, and 1\/4 cup almond milk. Bake in a prepared crust for 50 minutes at 375 degrees.<\/cite><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<\/figure>\n

Vegan frittata or quiche?<\/h3>\n

Both quiches and frittatas are traditionally egg based dishes. However, a quiche is baked in a flaky pastry crust while a frittata has no crust.<\/p>\n

Frittatas are also often cooked in a skillet instead of a pie pan.<\/p>\n

You can turn this nondairy recipe into a crustless vegan quiche by baking the filling directly in a well greased pan, omitting the optional pie crust.<\/p>\n
