I didn't dislike this recipe, but it wasn't the best either.

Flavor - With tamari, sea veggies, AND tempeh bacon, it was too salty. Beyond salt, the tempeh bacon didn't add anything to this recipe for me (I could hardly taste it). I didn't notice the wakame too much either -- that's not necessarily a bad thing, but I would not have minded it having a bigger presence. Also, the directions for the spices were incomplete (a list of 8 spice with instruction to use "1/2 tsp each" of the spices of your choice; I don't mind choice, but I would have liked some guidance or suggestions).

Texture - This was fairly fluffy and delicate. It didn't have the dense texture I associate with quiche. It was crustless, which I didn't mind, but that probably also made it less quiche-like. I did like the way the bits of zucchini turned out - cooked through but will some bite left.

All in all, this wasn't worth the extra effort to make it quiche-like. I bet a tofu scramble with similar add-ins (wakame, zucchini, red bell pepper), but less salt, would be good so I might try that sometime.
