Asparagus quiche

Asparagus quiche is the perfect spring dish that will surely impress you with its wonderful look and taste.

We really love spring and can’t get enough of all the goodies that nature has to offer, from wild garlic, dandelion to delicious asparagus and more. We simply adore asparagus because it is delicious and also very healthy, as it contains a lot of vitamin K, folic acid and iron, lowers blood pressure and is low in calories, so it’s great idea to add it to your diet and create delicious dishes. You can make a lot of different dishes, we love asparagus soup, various sauces, risotto, roasted asparagus and of course asparagus quiche, which is a great idea on how to use asparagus, that is also very tasty and beautiful. Both, the filling as well as the dough are really  easy to make. The crust is made with only 6 ingredients, and the filling has a bit more ingredients, but the preparation is quite simple, as all you have to do is blend all of the ingredients into a smooth cream.

The main ingredients of the juicy creamy filling are tofu and soya cream, which together with spices and fresh asparagus create an exceptional taste. Combined with delicious crust, they make a  truly phenomenal dish. We and our family are absolutely thrilled with this delicious, juicy and creamy asparagus quiche, which will definitely be on our menu several times during the asparagus season, it is perfect for both lunch and dinner and it is delicious hot or cold.
