My favourite item in a picnic hamper without a doubt is a porcini and sweetcorn tofu quiche. The filling can either be used in a quiche or as a filling for a pasty, both taste so good.

Instructions
-
Roll out the pastry if you haven't already bought pre-rolled to fit the size of a small pastry dish. Press the pastry into the dish and blind cook for 10 minutes in a moderate oven. The pastry will shrink a little, but don't worry about this.
-
While the pastry is baking blend the tofu and milk in a food processor until smooth and transfer to a bowl. Add the porcini powder, garlic granules, salt & pepper and mix to combine thoroughly. Add the sweetcorn and give the mixture another stir.
-
Remove the pastry case from the oven and pour in the tofu mixture, bake in a moderate oven for 20-30 minutes or until the pastry is fully cooked and the tofu mixture has 'set'.
Serving Suggestion
Great as part of a picnic or with a large crisp salad.
