Spicy Kale Quinoa Crustless Quiche

5/20/2013 2 Comments
 
Today is National Quiche Lorraine Day so I thought what better way to honor it than with a homemade quiche. Growing up my parents always made quiche for special occasions. Every Christmas or Thanksgiving my mom and or dad would wake up early to prepare the meal and with it, a quiche! With the leftover crust my mom would make cinnamon rolls that were to die for!

After becoming vegan I thought my quiche days were over, well fear not! This is a homemade quiche that is soy free, oil free, gluten free, nut free, dairy free (no eggs or cheese) is packed with quinoa, herbs and fresh vegetables! 


A low calorie, intensely satisfying meal! I will definitely be making this again, I can't wait to explore variations!

Take some Quinoa and grind to make a flour.

YUM!

Ingredients:
  • 4 cups loosely packed kale - de-stemmed and chopped
  • 2 + tomatoes, chopped
  • 1 jalapeno, chopped
  • 1/2 large white onion, chopped (Red if you have it!)
  • 1 green bell pepper, chopped
  • 6-10 cloves garlic, minced ( haha we love it, feel free to cut back )
  • 1 avocado 
  • 1/4 cup cilantro
  • 2 cups quinoa flower
  • 2 tsp ground cumin
  • Salt (opt), pepper and red pepper flakes to taste
  • 2 1/2 - 3 cups of water
Directions:
  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly oil a 9" spring loaf or cake pan. 
  2. Prepare vegetables using 6 of the 10 garlic cloves and cilantro. (I chopped the kale and tomato with my knife, the balance in the food processor.) Place chopped vegetables in a large bowl, set aside. 
  3. In blender combine the flower, spices and water. Blend until smooth and frothy.
  4. Pour the frothy mixture over in the large bowl over the chopped vegetables. Use a spoon to combine. Pour into prepped pan.
  5. Bake for 40-50+ minutes until the top is brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
  6. Allow to cool slightly, slice, garnish with an avocado and dig in!
