Red Pepper & Broccoli Quiche

Red Pepper & Broccoli Quiche

1 (9 inch) unbaked 9 inch pie crust
1 lb. broccoli, chopped
1 medium red pepper, diced
1 T. olive oil
1 onion, finely chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 lb. firm tofu, drained
1/2 C. low fat milk
1/4 tsp. Dijon mustard
3/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg
1/2 tsp. ground red pepper
black pepper to taste
1 T. dried parsley
2 T. grated Parmesan cheese

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Bake pie crust in preheated oven for 10 to 12 minutes. Place broccoli in a steamer over 1 inch of boiling water, and cover. Cook until tender but still firm, about 2 to 6 minutes. Drain. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Saute onion and garlic until golden. Stir in the cooked broccoli and red pepper and heat through. In a blender combine tofu, soy milk, mustard, salt, nutmeg, ground red pepper, black pepper, parsley and Parmesan cheese; process until smooth. In a large bowl combine tofu mixture with broccoli mixture. Pour into pie crust. Bake in preheated oven for 35 to 40 minutes, or until quiche is set. Allow to stand for 5 minutes before cutting.
