Easy Vegan Quiche

This isn't your typical quiche because it lacks the egg product! But what it lacks in egg, it makes up for in taste. It is super yummy and is good for breakfast or for lunch. The bonus is that it doesn't get much easier than blending, pouring, and baking.
 

Ingredients:

1 C water
1 lb firm water packed tofu
2 1/2 Tbsp cornstarch
1 Tbsp lemon juice
1 1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp oregano
1 1/4 tsp basil
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp dill weed
1 1/2 tsp chicken seasoning (I use McKay's in the recipe)
10 oz frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained*
1 C olive slices*
1 small can mushroom pieces*

Instructions:

Place al but the last three ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth. Place blended mixture in a large bowl and stir in the vegetables. Pour into two pie crusts and bake at 350 for 30-40 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.


*You can substitute other vegetables, but theses are our favorites! :)

Potato Carrot Cheese

Everyone needs to try this recipe.  I could sit and dip chips in this cheese at every meal, I think.  I like that it has lots of fiber and nutrients.  It's a little cheaper than some recipes because the base is made from potatoes and carrots.  It is bursting with flavor! Ingredients: 2 C cooked potatoes 1 C cooked carrots 1/2 C nutritional yeast, scant 1/2 C water (use from cooked potatoes and carrots) 1/3 C light olive oil 1 Tbsp lemon juice 2 tsp salt 1/2 tsp chicken-style seasoning 1/4 tsp garlic powder 1/4 tsp onion powder 2 oz pimientos Instructions: Put all ingredients into a blender and blend until smooth and creamy.   Serve with chips, on broccoli, as macaroni and cheese, on lasagna.  This is so very yummy!

Pour into a saucepan and stir constantly over medium heat until it starts to bubble a little.
