Spinach And Mushroom Tofu Quiche Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. When the oil is hot, add the mushrooms, garlic and thyme. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms have browned, 5 to 6 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Remove the skillet from the heat.
• Press the pie crust into a deep, 9-inch tart pan with a removeable bottom (or a deep-dish pie pan). Layer the mushrooms and spinach into the crust and top with the cheese.
• Whisk together the half-and-half, eggs and a good pinch of salt and pepper in a large bowl. Pour the egg mixture into the crust.
• Place the pan on a rimmed baking sheet. Lightly cover the pan with aluminum foil and bake for 45 minutes. Remove the foil and continue baking until the quiche is set and the crust is golden brown, another 10 to 15 minutes. Let the quiche sit for 10 to 15 minutes, then remove from the pan, slice and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Bake pie crust in preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Saute spinach, onion, garlic, and mushrooms until golden.
• In a blender combine tofu, soy milk, mustard, salt, nutmeg, ground red pepper, black pepper, and parsley; process until smooth. In a large bowl combine tofu mixture with broccoli mixture (THERE IS NO BROCCOLI IN THIS RECIPE!). Pour into pie crust.
• Bake in preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or until quiche is set. Allow to stand for 5 minutes before cutting.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a blender, combine tofu and milk; process until smooth, adding more milk if necessary. Blend in salt and pepper.
• In a medium bowl, combine spinach, garlic, onion, Cheddar cheese, Swiss cheese and tofu mixture. Mix well, and pour into prepared pie crust.
• Bake in preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until set and golden brown on top. Let stand 5 minutes before cutting.

Steps:

• Mix up the pie dough and when ready roll or press out to line a 9- or 10-inch tart pan. Set in the refrigerator to rest. Meanwhile place the dried mushrooms in a pyrex measuring cup and pour in 1 cup boiling water. Let sit for 20 minutes or longer. Set a strainer over a bowl, line it with cheesecloth or paper towels, and drain the mushrooms. Squeeze over the strainer to extract as much flavorful liquid as possible, rinse away any lingering sand, and chop medium-fine. Set aside. Measure out 1/3 cup of the mushroom broth.
• Heat one tablespoon of the olive oil over medium heat in a large, heavy skillet and add the onion. Cook, stirring often, until the onion begins to soften, and add a generous pinch of salt. Continue to cook, stirring often, until the onions are tender and lightly colored, about 8 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until it begins to smell fragrant, 30 seconds to a minute. Stir in the fresh and dried mushrooms and turn the heat up to medium-high. Cook, stirring or shaking the pan, until the mushrooms have begun to sweat and soften, about 5 minutes. Add the thyme and season to taste with salt and pepper. Continue to cook, stirring often, until the mushrooms are tender. If desired add the wine and stir to deglaze the pan. When the liquid has evaporated remove from the heat.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Place the tofu, soy sauce, miso, yeast extract, tahini and cayenne in a food processor fitted with the steel blade and blend the ingredients until smooth. Stop the machine and scrape down the sides of the bowl, then process again. With the machine running add 1/3 cup of the mushroom broth and process until smooth. Scrape into a large bowl, add the cooked mushrooms and onions, and stir together.
• Brush the crust with the remaining olive oil and place in the oven for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and fill with the tofu mixture. Bake 35 to 40 minutes, until the top is a rich golden brown and the filling has set. Remove from the heat and allow to sit for at least 10 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat the over to 350°F.
• To make the crust, spread the oats and sesame seeds/nuts of your choice on a baking sheet and toast in the oven for ~10 minutes.
• Transfer the toasted oats and sesame seeds to the bowl of a food processor fitted with a metal blade (I use my blender, but it is boss). Add the flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper, and process until the oats are finely ground.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy milk and oil. Using a wooden spoon, mix in the dry ingredients to form a dough.
• Lightly brush a 9-inch or 10-inch pie with oil. Put the dough into pan, place a piece of plastic wrap on the dough and press down evenly, making sure to fill in the fluted sides of the pan. Trim the tart of any excess dough and refrigerate while you make the filling.
• To make the filling, in a wide saute pan over medium heat, warm 2 tablespoons of the oil. Add the onion and mushroom, raise the heat to high, and saute for 10 to 12 minutes, stirring and shaking, and depending on how much of the left over wine you have chosen to drink, flipping the pan until the vegetables are caramelized. Add the wine and scrape up any brown bits from the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Season with 1/2 teaspoon of the salt and continue to cook until relatively dry (excess moisture gone). Using a rubber spatula, scrape the vegetables into a mixing bowl and set aside.
• In a small saucepan over medium heat, warm the remaining 5 tablespoons of oil. Add the garlic, basil, thyme, and red pepper flakes. Simmer gently for 3 to 4 minutes or until the garlic is golden. Do not let the garlic brown or it will become bitter (I mean that, I will find you)! With a rubber spatula, scrape the garlic oil into the bowl of a food processor or blender.
• Crumble the tofu into the bowl of the food processor. Add the lemon juice, vinegar, turmeric, and remaining 1 teaspoon of salt and puree until smooth. With a rubber spatula, scrape the puree into the mushroom-onion mixture.
• Remove and discard the tough stems of the spinach (not completely necessary but a fancy touch none the less). Wash the leaves in a large bowl with several changes of cold water. Transfer the spinach to a pot and cook covered, over high heat for several minutes, just until wilted. Drain in a colander and rinse under cold water to arrest the cooking. Drain well and squeeze dry. Transfer the spinach to a cutting board and chop fine (this is important, going for flakes here, not stands). Add the spinach to the rest of the filling and stir well to combine.
• Fill the tart shell with the tofu and vegetable mixture and smooth the top with the back of a spoon. Dust with Paprika and some vegan cheese if you would like. Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, until firm.
• Let the tart cool for 8 to 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Bake pie crust in preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes.
• Place broccoli in a steamer over 1 inch of boiling water, and cover. Cook until tender but still firm, about 2 to 6 minutes. Drain.
• Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Saute onion and garlic until golden. Stir in the cooked broccoli and heat through.
• In a blender, combine tofu, soy milk, mustard, salt, nutmeg, ground red pepper, black pepper, parsley and Parmesan soy cheese; process until smooth. In a large bowl combine tofu mixture with broccoli mixture. Pour into pie crust.
• Bake in preheated oven until quiche is set, 35 to 40 minutes. Allow to stand for at least 5 minutes before cutting.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375°F.
• In a bowl whisk together the soy sauce, vinegar, oil, honey, ginger, and garlic. Place the mushrooms in a bowl and add enough of the marinade to evenly coat them. Toss to combine.
• Arrange the tofu in a single layer in a small baking dish. Pour the remaining marinade over the tofu.
• Transfer the tofu to the oven and roast for 20 minutes. Spread the mushrooms out on one or two baking sheets and transfer to the oven. Continue roasting the tofu and the mushrooms until the tofu is nearly dry and well browned and the mushrooms are tender and golden, about 10 to 15 minutes.
• Arrange the spinach on serving plates. Drizzle with some of the remaining marinade from the tofu pan. Divide the tofu slices among the plates and top with some of the mushrooms. Serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Fit pie crust into a 9-inch pie dish.
• Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir green onions and garlic until green onions are softened, about 5 minutes. Cook and stir turkey bacon in the green onion mixture until fragrant.
• Stir spinach, shiitake mushrooms, and broccoli into green onion mixture; cook and stir vegetables until softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Mix in 1/4 cup Cheddar cheese.
• Spoon vegetable mixture into the pie crust.
• Beat eggs, milk, sea salt, and black pepper together in a bowl; pour egg mixture gently over vegetable filling, slightly stirring eggs into the filling to combine.
• Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes; sprinkle 1/2 cup Cheddar cheese over the top of the quiche and bake 10 additional minutes. Cover quiche with aluminum foil and bake until quiche has set and a toothpick inserted into the quiche comes out clean, about 10 more minutes.
• Allow quiche to cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients. Be sure that all moisture is out of spinach.
• Pour into pie crust.
• Bake at 350 for 40-45 minutes until set. Cover with foil after 30 if crust is getting too dark.
