ASPARAGUS AND MUSHROOM QUICHE WITH A BROWN RICE CRUST

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350. Put first 8 ingredients (tofu through salt) into blender. Puree until completely smooth, stirring a couple of times between blending. Mix rice with 3 tablespoons of the tofu mixture and the vegan parmesan (optional). Add freshly ground black pepper to taste. Spray a pie pan with cooking spray or canola oil, and press the rice into the bottom and up the sides of the pan. Bake for 8 minutes. Remove from oven. Snap the tough ends off the asparagus and discard. Cut off the top 3 inches and set aside. Chop the remaining stalks into 1/2-inch pieces. Spray a medium non-stick saucepan with olive oil and heat. Add the shallots and cook for about 1 minute. Add the garlic, asparagus, and two tablespoons water. Cover and cook for 2 minutes. Add the mushrooms, bell pepper, and 2 more tablespoons water. Cover and cook 2 more minutes. Remove cover, sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste, and cook, stirring, for a minute or two until most liquid has evaporated. Separate out the asparagus tips from the rest of the vegetables. (NOTE: Next time I will not pre-cook the asparagus tips; they should cook well enough in the oven.) Spread the vegetables (excluding the asparagus tips) on top of the rice crust. Pour the remaining tofu mixture over the vegetables, stirring lightly to distribute it through the vegetables. Arrange the asparagus tips over the top and spray lightly with olive oil. Bake for 60 minutes. Let cool for about 10 minutes before cutting (this helps make the quiche slice more cleanly, but if you don't care about that, go ahead and dig in; we did!) 4 servings: 223 Calories (kcal); 5g Total Fat; (18% calories from fat); 12g Protein; 34g Carbohydrate; 0mg Cholesterol; 441mg Sodium; 4g Fiber.

FULLBLOOD WAGYU BEEF BREAKFAST SAUSAGE, MUSHROOM, ASPARAGUS, AND JACK CHEESE QUICHE

Steps:

• PREPARING THE DOUGH: Put the flour and salt in a bowl. Grate the cold butter into the flour and salt. Toss and coat the butter with flour.In a separate bowl, blend together the egg and water. Slowly add to the ingredients from the first bowl. Knead the ingredients until dough forms. Divide the dough into two equal portions and flatten into round disks.Cover, and rest the dough in the refrigerator for at least one hour before using.Roll rested dough out onto a floured surface, making it into a circle that is about 12 inches diameter. Roll the dough over the rolling pin, brushing off any excess flour as you roll. Repeat to make the second pie crust. Place the dough onto each pie pan carefully. Slide dough gently into the sides and fold under the extra dough. Crimp the edges on each pan. Cover the dough with parchment paper, and put in pie weights (you can also use a small bag of dry, uncooked white beans or garbanzo beans covering the entire surface to weigh down the dough). Bake both pie crusts at 375 degrees for 20 minutes. Then, remove the parchment paper and beans/weights.Bake for another 5 minutes to set the bottom crusts.
• PREPARING THE FULLBLOOD WAGYU BEEF FILLING: Heat a large sauté pan on medium-high heat. Add grapeseed oil. Once the oil is hot, add the Fullblood Wagyu sausage, and break it into bite-size pieces as it cooks.Once the Wagyu sausage is cooked, use a slotted spoon to pull out the sausage, leaving the rendered fat in the pan. Use only enough to coat the bottom of the pan, and discard the remaining fat/liquid.Let the fat/liquid heat up, and add the onions. Sauté them until wilted and caramelized. Add the mushrooms, and cook them until they have wilted down (around 5 minutes). Then, add the asparagus and cook for another 2 minutes. Add the sausage back in to complete the filling. Split the filling between the two par-baked crusts. Top both filled crusts with cheese (make the custard next)
• PREPARING THE QUICHE CUSTARD: Mix all ingredients (eggs, egg yolks, kosher salt, fresh ground black pepper, nutmeg, half and half) together in a blender or with a whisk.
• FINAL STEPS: Pour the quiche custard on top of the filling. Pour until it's about 2/3 full. Repeat with the second pie.You should now have two par-baked pie crusts with Fullblood Wagyu beef filling, cheese, and custard.Bake at 325 degrees for 30 minutes or until the center no longer jiggles and the cheese is caramelized. Slice, serve, and enjoy!
