Direction

    1. Gather the ingredients.
    2. Preheat the oven to 425 F.
    3. Chop the onion, green bell pepper, and broccoli. Slice the mushrooms.
    4. Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat and sauté the onion, green pepper, broccoli, and mushrooms until softened and cooked, about 8 to 10 minutes.
    5. In a blender or food processor, blend the tofu, nutmeg, turmeric, basil, salt, and soy milk until the mixture is smooth.
    6. Stir the vegetables and the tofu mixture together and add pepper to taste.
    7. Pour the mixed batter into the pie crust.
    8. Bake your vegan quiche for 30 minutes, or until a knife inserted just off-center into the quiche comes out clean.
