TOFU MUSHROOM "QUICHE"
This is a vegan quiche filled with a savory mix of blended tofu and mushrooms. It has a deep, rich umami flavor. No eggs are necessary to bind it; the tofu stiffens up when it bakes. You can use the crust of your choice. The yeasted crust is not vegan, as it contains an egg.

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 your oven to 400°
- Break apart the tofu and add to your food processor along with the nutritional yeast, baking powder, salt, black salt, granulated garlic, granulated onion, and miso. Process until completely broken down, it will look like tiny little crumbles
- Now add the plant milk, vinegar, Tamari and liquid smoke. Process until it is paste like. It will be really thick. You will have to stop and scrape down side a few times and push the mixture around with your spatula to help get it going. This will take a few minutes. If you find it is not coming together then add one more tablespoon of plant milk. (this has to be very thick for the best texture when cooked so if you can avoid adding additional liquid don't). Set aside
- Set a large non stick skillet to medium heat. once hot add the onions and peppers. Saute over medium heat for 3 minutes. add the mushrooms, garlic and rosemary. Cook for 3 minutes or so until mushrooms are completely cooked down and have released their juices. Stir in the spinach and cook for another minute or so until it is wilted. Set aside to cool for 1-2 minutes.
- Add the tofu filling to the cooked vegetables in the skillet. Mix well. (if using vegan cheese stir it in now). Set aside.
- Place the puff pastry sheet over the pie plate and mold to fit. Trim the edges with a knife and flute them if you like.
- Pour the quiche filling into the crust, making sure it's evenly distributed and pressed down. Add the tomatoes pushing them down slightly into the filling. Season with a little salt and pepper.
- Bake uncovered for 1 hour. (Towards end of baking, if your crust is getting to brown for your liking, loosely tent the edges with tin foil). Cool for 20 minutes before serving so the filling sets. Enjoy hot or cold for breakfast or brunch! Delicious served with my breakfast potatoes, restaurant style salsa and a green salad! For step by step photos see above post ????

- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Oil a 9-inch pie plate or 10-inch quiche pan (not the type with a removable bottom as the quiche mixture would leak).
- Preheat a saute pan over medium heat. Add 1 Tbsp olive oil to the pan. Cook the onion until translucent, 3 to 5 minutes. Add the mushrooms, asparagus, and a pinch of salt. Stirring occasionally, cook until the asparagus is barely fork tender, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, thyme, and onion powder to the pan. Stir and cook for 1 minute. Remove from heat.
- Crumble the tofu into the bowl of a food processor. Add the tamari and nutritional yeast. Process until fully combined, stopping to scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed. With the processor running, drizzle in just enough water so that the mixture becomes smooth, similar in texture to thick hummus (super-firm will require more water, normal extra-firm will need less). Drizzle in 1 Tbsp olive oil. Taste for salt keeping in mind that the cheese will add saltiness, and add up to 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Add the shredded or chopped cheese, and pulse 5 or 6 times to incorporate it into the tofu mixture.
- Spoon the quiche mixture into the sauté pan with the vegetables, and stir to combine. Transfer the mixture to the prepared pie plate, and smooth the top with a silicone spatula. Bake 28 to 32 minutes or until firm and a knife inserted in the center comes out hot. Let stand 15 minutes before slicing.
