Vegan Quiche

One of my favorite breakfasts when I'm not starting my day with a green smoothie is Tofu Frittata. Instead of a vegan frittata, I thought I'd make an easy vegan quiche instead.

They are basically the same except a quiche has a crust and a custard base.

This Spinach and Broccoli Vegan Quiche is a healthy hearty meal. Besides spinach and broccoli, I added nutritional yeast for a cheesy flavor. Miso paste and tamari add a savory umami flavor.

For the crust I used chickpea flour. It has a mild flavor so it goes well with a variety of dishes.

Tips for Making a Vegan Quiche

• There's no need to roll out the chickpea crust. Once all the ingredients are mixed, it will be a similar consistency to play dough.
• Oil your hands and press the dough into an oiled pie crust pan. Bake until the crust is golden on the edges, then add filling and bake again.
• Don't skip cooking the veggies before baking the quiche. Even though you're baking the quiche, the veggies need to be cooked ahead of time for overall taste.
• The same goes for the crust. Adding wet ingredients to a pie crust that isn't cooked just makes for a wet dough.
