2. Prepare egg substitute: If using frozen egg substitute, make sure to defrost it according to the package instructions.

3. Layer ingredients: In a pie shell, layer the vegetarian pepperoni slices, shredded fat-free cheddar cheese, diced onion, green pepper, and sliced fresh mushrooms. This creates a flavorful base for your quiche.

4. Mix egg substitute: In a mixing bowl, combine the defrosted egg substitute, low-fat milk, and season with pepper to taste. Mix well until everything is evenly incorporated.

5. Pour into shell: Carefully pour the egg mixture over the layered ingredients in the pie shell. Ensure that the filling is evenly distributed for a perfectly balanced quiche.

6. Add toppings: For an extra burst of flavor, sprinkle additional shredded cheese and seasoning over the top of the quiche if desired. This adds a golden, cheesy crust to your quiche as it bakes.

7. Bake: Place the quiche in the preheated oven and bake for 45 to 55 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is golden brown. Keep an eye on it towards the end to prevent overcooking.

8. Serve and enjoy: Once baked to perfection, remove the quiche from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before slicing and serving. This savory delight is perfect for breakfast, brunch, or even a quick dinner option.
