This Vegan Zucchini Quiche recipe was inspired by a friend that shared a simple zucchini quiche in my Plant Based Recipe Group. I did what I usually do, put my own spin on it and added some great ingredients that really took the dish to the next level!
The bounty of zucchini combined with onions, mushrooms, fennel, asparagus and cilantro makes this Vegan Zucchini Quiche dish full of fiber, flavor and nutrition! Tahini, miso and nutritional yeast round out the dish and with the use of garbanzo bean flour, it is gluten free and “eggy”.
Also, cooking without oil ensures this meal is nutritionally sound and supports everyone on their whole food plant based journey. If you are unsure on how to cook without oil, checkout this video for tips and watch this recipe come together live!
