Instructions
Base Recipe
- Start by preheating your oven to 350°F.
- Dice the shallot and sauté it in a frying pan over medium heat with olive oil and the Italian herbs. Let it cook until fragrant, translucent, and lightly golden brown - about 5 minutes.
- For other flavor options, make sure to sauté any veggies included with the shallot before adding them to the Just Egg mixture.
- Grate some vegan parmesan cheese and sprinkle a thin layer onto the bottom of the frozen prepared pie crust.
- Shake the JUST Egg bottle well and pour the entire bottle into the pie crust. Stir in the sautéed shallots, then add salt, black pepper, and the rest of the vegan parmesan cheese on top.
- Place the quiche in the oven and bake at 350F for 45 - 55 minutes or until the center is set and a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean. If the crust begins to brown too quickly, cover the edges with a pie shield or aluminum foil to prevent over-baking.
- That's it! Serve and enjoy!
