ASPARAGUS AND MUSHROOM QUICHE WITH A BROWN RICE CRUST



ASPARAGUS AND MUSHROOM QUICHE WITH A BROWN RICE CRUST image

Categories     Vegetable     Bake     Lunch     Vegan

Yield 8 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

One 12-ounce package firm or extra-firm silken tofu*
1/4 cup plain soy milk
2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon tahini
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon turmeric
3/4 teaspoons salt
2 cups cooked brown rice
1 tablespoon vegan parmesan (optional)
freshly ground pepper, to taste
1 bunch asparagus (about 12 ounces)
1/4 cup shallots, minced
1 clove garlic, minced
1 heaping cup (about 4 ounces) sliced mushrooms
1/2 red bell pepper, chopped
olive oil spray

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350. Put first 8 ingredients (tofu through salt) into blender. Puree until completely smooth, stirring a couple of times between blending. Mix rice with 3 tablespoons of the tofu mixture and the vegan parmesan (optional). Add freshly ground black pepper to taste. Spray a pie pan with cooking spray or canola oil, and press the rice into the bottom and up the sides of the pan. Bake for 8 minutes. Remove from oven. Snap the tough ends off the asparagus and discard. Cut off the top 3 inches and set aside. Chop the remaining stalks into 1/2-inch pieces. Spray a medium non-stick saucepan with olive oil and heat. Add the shallots and cook for about 1 minute. Add the garlic, asparagus, and two tablespoons water. Cover and cook for 2 minutes. Add the mushrooms, bell pepper, and 2 more tablespoons water. Cover and cook 2 more minutes. Remove cover, sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste, and cook, stirring, for a minute or two until most liquid has evaporated. Separate out the asparagus tips from the rest of the vegetables. (NOTE: Next time I will not pre-cook the asparagus tips; they should cook well enough in the oven.) Spread the vegetables (excluding the asparagus tips) on top of the rice crust. Pour the remaining tofu mixture over the vegetables, stirring lightly to distribute it through the vegetables. Arrange the asparagus tips over the top and spray lightly with olive oil. Bake for 60 minutes. Let cool for about 10 minutes before cutting (this helps make the quiche slice more cleanly, but if you don't care about that, go ahead and dig in; we did!) 4 servings: 223 Calories (kcal); 5g Total Fat; (18% calories from fat); 12g Protein; 34g Carbohydrate; 0mg Cholesterol; 441mg Sodium; 4g Fiber.

This recipe came from Cooking Light magazine, we aren't usually quiche fans but this was awsum! A tip: I like to put leftover cooked rice in the freezer, this way I always have precooked rice when I need it and I don't waste the leftovers. Also I add 1-2 tablespoons of Cajun seasoning to the egg mixture. Crust browns nicely! Hope you enjoy!

BROCCOLI AND CHEDDAR QUICHE WITH A BROWN RICE CRUST RECIPE - (4.4/5)



Broccoli and Cheddar Quiche with a Brown Rice Crust Recipe - (4.4/5) image

Provided by LKovac

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups cooked brown rice
1/4 cup cheddar cheese, finely grated
5 eggs
1 cup milk
2 cups broccoli, cut into bite sized pieces and blanched
1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, grated
4 green onions, sliced
1 pinch nutmeg (optional)
Salt and pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Mix the rice, finely grated cheese and one egg in a bowl. Press the rice mixture into a pie plate, about 1/4 inch thick. Bake in a preheated 450 degree F oven until the edges and bottom just start turning golden brown, about 5 to 7 minutes. Mix the remaining eggs, milk, broccoli, sharp cheddar cheese and green onions in a bowl and season with salt and pepper. Pour the egg mixture into the pie crust. Bake in a preheated 375 degree F oven until golden brown and set in the center, about 30 to 35 minutes.

Tips:

  • Use a variety of fillings. This recipe is very versatile, so you can use almost any type of fillings you like. Some popular options include cheese, vegetables, and meat.
  • Don't overcook the rice. The rice should be cooked just until it is tender, but not mushy. Otherwise, the quiche will be too soft.
  • Use a deep-dish pie plate. This will help to prevent the quiche from overflowing.
  • Bake the quiche until the center is set. You can check this by inserting a toothpick into the center of the quiche. If it comes out clean, the quiche is done.
  • Let the quiche cool slightly before serving. This will help to prevent it from falling apart.

Conclusion:

The rice crust quiche is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up leftover rice, and it is also a healthy and filling meal. With its crispy rice crust and creamy filling, this quiche is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
