Vegan High Protein Quiche Cups

Vegan High Protein Quiche Cups sound like a great way to start the day, right?! these delicious gems are packed with protein from tofu and they’re incredibly delicious. per usual, these are made with minimal and real ingredients that you will love!

starting the day out right is everything and Vegan High Protein Quiche Cups are a great way to get your energy in the morning.

they’re not even limited for the morning though, we eat these for dinner too!

Vegan High Protein Quiche Cups pair well with anything and everything. may i suggest some potato wedges or skillet potatoes?

while i didn’t make any this time around, trust me, the combo is out of this world.

you will need two packs of tofu for this recipe, and it has to be VERY firm. the brand that i recommend is Nasoya and it seems to be at almost every grocery store that i have been to.

if you can’t find that one, something comparable in texture will do.

sprouts and Trader Joe’s both have super firm tofu that is the same texture as Nasoya. the reason the texture is so important is due to the baking process.

you want the texture to resemble quiche as much as possible. if you use a soft tofu, you will end up with mush.

also, don’t make the mistake that i did. i thought that i could get away with just greasing the muffin tins and not using parchment paper.

let me tell you, these will be hard to get out if you’re not using non-stick lol. i recommend greasing a non-stick tray or using parchment paper muffin cups that have also been greased.

that way, it’s fail proof when it comes to removal and you don’t have to tediously remove them like i did. a waste of 15 minutes hah!

ok, the recipe list is very short AND, you can use any veggie or greens as add ins.

i went with mushrooms and spinach that had been steamed together. just make sure that the liquid has been totally absorbed or else it can make the tofu mixture runny.

here’s everything you need to make Vegan High Protein Quiche Cups

super firm tofu

dairy free milk

vegetable stock

tapioca flour or arrowroot

turmeric powder

garlic powder

onion powder

nutritional yeast

buffalo sauce

sea salt and pepper to taste

steamed or sautéed veggies/greens (optional)

vegan cheese (optional)

the Vegan High Protein Quiche Cups bake in the oven at 350 degrees for 35 minutes. then, you can add some vegan cheese to the top and broil a couple of minutes.

if you opt of out vegan cheese, the cups are still amazing! i do think they need a little green on top, so i added chopped cilantro.
