I served this baked frittata most recently with a side dish of roasted potatoes and fresh fruit. The family agreed this recipe is a keeper!

Are frittata and quiche the same thing?

  • No, but they’re close. The only difference is that a quiche has a crust. A frittata does not have a crust.

Ingredients for Tofu and Broccoli Frittata

You will need: 

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/4 cup yellow onion, chopped
  • 4 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 pound broccoli florets – fresh or frozen both work with this recipe
  • 14 ounces extra-firm tofu, pressed
  • 1/2 cup oat milk, or other mild-flavored plant milk such as unsweetened almond
  • 1/4 cup vegan Parmesan cheese, shredded
  • 3 tablespoons parsley, chopped
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon creamy Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes, optional

Ingredient Notes

  • Broccoli Florets – Frozen broccoli works just as well as fresh; just make sure the broccoli is thawed completely and drained well.

How to Make a Tofu and Broccoli Frittata

STEP ONE: Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

STEP TWO: Into a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the olive oil. When the olive oil is hot, add the yellow onion. Saute for 3 minutes, until softened. Add the garlic and chopped broccoli. Continue cooking, stirring frequently, until broccoli is heated through. Remove from heat and set aside.

STEP THREE: Into a high-speed blender or food processor, add extra firm tofu, unsweetened almond milk, vegan parmesan cheese, fresh parsley, sea salt, ground black pepper, ground nutmeg, dijon mustard, and red pepper flakes (if using). Blend or process until consistency is smooth, about 2 minutes. Time will vary depending on the speed and equipment used.

STEP FOUR: Into a large mixing bowl, add the tofu mixture and broccoli mixture. Stir to combine. Pour the entire mixture into an 11″ greased baking pan.

STEP FIVE: Bake for 35 minutes, until the frittata is set then slice and serve.

How to Serve a Frittata

  • The beauty of this dish is in its versatility! Frittatas are served hot, warm, room temperature, and cold. Personally, I think they taste best around room temperature.

How to Reheat Leftover Frittata

There are three ways and they are not all equal:

  • In the oven: 300 degrees F for about 15 minutes is all it takes. This is the best method, in my opinion.
  • On the stove: In a non-stick skillet over low heat, add the leftover frittata. Cover and heat for about 5 minutes.
  • In the microwave: I don’t recommend this method because it can result in a texture that is not as firm. But, if you must use the microwave… heat the leftovers, uncovered, for 30 seconds at 50% power.

      Thank you! The frittata should be baked at 375 degrees F. The post has been updated to make that more clear. 🙂

    What is your definition of pouring it into a prepared pan? Greased or anything?
