Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 x Block tofu, drained
2 x Eggs
1/3 c Lowfat milk
1/2 ts Oregano, crushed
1/8 ts Garlic miced or g. powder
1 c Shredded lowfat cheese
2 c Steamed broccoli
1/2 c Onion
1 x Hot pepper, your favorite
1/3 c Picante sauce, your choice

make or buy a regular pie crust. bake it at 375 for
about 10 min. or until starting to get done. remove
pie crust from oven. or make oatmeal and walnut pie
crust, i tried it, i prefer regualar. in food
processor or blender, whirrrrrrr up the tofu block
(drained) and eggs, milk, spices. stir in half the
grated cheese. last of all, stir in picante sauce
(but don't whirrrr) and broccoli (but don't whirrrr.)
you can add ingredients to make this even hotter, use
your imagination. you may also add meat, your choice.
chicken wouldn't be bad. fold all these ingredients
which are now in suspended animation in the
tofu-egg-cheese mixture, into the ready pie crust, and
add rest of cheese on top. bake at about 375 for
about 35 to 40 mins. quiche is done when a fork in
the middle comes out clean. it will cut much better
after cool. the predominant taste will be the hot
sauce and you won't taste tofu or anything weird, but
you will know you are getting low-cal nourishment from
the lowly bean and you can act smug around your
friends.
