Summer Veggie Pie

More often these days we have guests who are abstaining from animal products. We've been very careful to eliminate meat from all of our dishes, but this request is a little more challenging since we rely so much on milk and eggs in our recipes. However, we have found that this quiche is so creamy, tangy and satisfying that no one seems to notice that it is not a "traditional" quiche.

Total preparation time:  1.5 hours
Serves:  12

Ingredients:

  • 13 oz frozen shredded potatoes
  • salt
  • pepper
  • 1 large onion, sliced thinly
  • 1/2 cup green onions, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • 1 1/2 cup mushrooms, sliced thinly
  • 3/4 cup broccoli, chopped
  • 1 cup zucchini, sliced
  • 1 lb extra firm tofu, drained
  • 2 tablespoons oil
  • 2 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 3 tablespoons flour
  • paprika

Steps:

  1. Oil a glass pie plate and distribute potatoes over bottom of pan. Season with salt and pepper and bake for 20-25 minutes at 350 degrees, stirring occasionally, until slightly browned.
  2. Spread softened potatoes evenly over bottom and sides of pans. Saute green onions, yellow onions and garlic in oil until tender.
  3. Add broccoli, zucchini and mushrooms and saute until tender. Drain well and place in a large mixing bowl. Set aside.
