Steps:
- 1. Separate crescent dough into eight triangles.
- 2. Place in an ungreased 9-inch pie plate with the points toward the center.
- 3. Press onto the bottom and up the sides to form a crust; seal the perforations.
- 4. Spread with the Dijon mustard and set aside.
- 5. In a large skillet, saute the asparagus, onion and mushrooms in butter until the asparagus is crisp and tender.
- 6. In a large bowl combine the remaining ingredients.
- 7. Stir in the asparagus mixture.
- 8. Pour into crust.
- 9. Bake at 375° for 25 to 30 minutes or until a knife inserted near the edge comes out clean.
- 10. Let it rest for 5 minutes before cutting. Special Note: I always steam my asparagus when I make it so I did so for this recipe. I just added it to the mushrooms and onion once they were tender. I've also made my own crust instead of using the crescents both are very good.
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.

Tips:
- To ensure a flaky crust, use a well-chilled butter and work it quickly into the flour mixture. Avoid overworking the dough, as this can result in a tough crust.
- For a more flavorful quiche, use a combination of different types of mushrooms, such as cremini, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms.
- Asparagus can be cooked ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. This makes it a great option for meal prep.
- For a vegetarian quiche, omit the bacon or pancetta. You can also add in other vegetables, such as bell peppers, zucchini, or spinach.
- Serve the quiche warm or at room temperature. It can also be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
