Method

Preheat the oven to 375°F. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

Add onions, chopped bell peppers, mushrooms and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt, and cook until mushrooms have released their juices, about 10 minutes.

Add spinach and garlic and cook until the spinach is wilted, about 3 minutes longer. Set aside.

Mash tofu and place it in the bowl of a food processor along with soy milk and tahini.

Purée until smooth.

Add remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, black pepper, curry powder, onion powder and garlic powder, and add tamari to taste.

Add tofu mixture to sautéed vegetables, stirring to combine well.

Adjust seasonings to taste and spoon into pie shell.

Arrange bell pepper slices decoratively on top and bake until pastry and the top of the pie are golden brown, about 50 minutes.

Let quiche cool several minutes before slicing.
