A flaky pie crust filled with savory egg, vegetable, and soy chorizo in tasty quiche form. Delicious, healthy, and oh so easy, this vegetarian quiche is the perfect meal for breakfast, lunch, or dinner!
Ingredients
- 1 frozen pie crust gf if needed- I like the brand Wholly Wholesome
- ½ cup cooked soy chorizo prepared according to package instructions
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- ½ sweet onion diced fine
- ½ red bell pepper diced fine
- 1 jalapeno diced fine
- ⅓ cup black beans
- 1 cup fresh spinach rough chopped
- ½ cup cashew cream In Vitamix blend together ½ cup raw cashews and 1¾ cup water. Blend on high for 5 minutes and set aside - this will make extra which you can save for use in other recipes
- 5 large eggs
- ⅔ cup goat cheese crumbles divided
- ¼ cup chopped scallions plus extra 2 tbsp for topping
- 1 tsp red pepper flakes
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- ½ tsp freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400F.
- Add 1 tbsp olive oil to a large cast iron pan. Add onion, bell pepper, and jalapeno. Cook for 3-4 minutes or until softened. Add black beans and cook for an additional 5-8 minutes, or until softened. Stir in chopped spinach, sprinkle with salt, and cook 1-2 minutes, or until just wilted. Set aside.
- In a medium-size mixing bowl, stir together cashew cream, eggs, ⅓ cup goat cheese crumbles, ¼ cup of chopped scallions, red pepper flakes, salt and pepper.
- To a pie crust (prepped according to package instructions), add your cooked soy chorizo and spread in an even layer. Top with cooked vegetables, again spreading evenly over the soy chorizo. Next, pour egg mixture over the crust.
- Top quiche with remaining ⅓ cup goat cheese crumbles and extra 2 tbsp chopped scallions.
- Place quiche on a baking tray and move to the oven and bake at 400F for 35-40 minutes or until edges of pie crust are browned and center is cooked through and set.
Notes
- You can sub heavy cream or nut pods original creamer for cashew cream.
- You can substitute chopped chives for scallions.
- I like to place quiche over a baking tray with parchment paper to help ensure coverage for any leakage.
