Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 medium, chopped onion
- 2 minced garlic cloves
- 100 grams, fresh spinach
- 200 grams, sliced mushrooms
- 150 grams, halved cherry tomatoes
- 400 grams, drained and crumbled extra-firm tofu
- 3 tablespoons nutritional yeast
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 120 milliliters unsweetened almond milk
- 1 tablespoon dijon mustard
- 0.5 teaspoon turmeric
- 0.25 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 teaspoon salt

- 1 pre-made dairy-free pie crust
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Add the fresh spinach and sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook until the spinach is wilted and the mushrooms are tender, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the crumbled tofu, nutritional yeast, cornstarch, unsweetened almond milk, Dijon mustard, turmeric, nutmeg, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Fold the sautéed vegetables and cherry tomatoes into the tofu mixture.
Carefully spread the tofu and vegetable mixture into the prepared dairy-free pie crust.
Bake in the preheated oven for 35 minutes, or until the top is firm and golden brown.
Let the quiche cool for about 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
