Vegan Breakfast Recipes

 

A great assortment of totally vegan breakfast recipes

Tofu Scramble 

Ingredients

* 1/3 block tofu, soft, drained 15 minutes
* 1/2 small onion, diced
* 1 clove garlic, minced
* 1 sun dried tomato slice, diced, (usually come in packages sliced)
* spinach, flat leaf, a small handful
* red pepper
* turmeric or curry (for a spicier dish)
* Mrs. Dash or some other flavored salt (optional)
* olive or vegetable oil (or veggie butter)
* salt and pepper
* flour tortillas, or vegan bread (1-3, optional)

Directions

Add about 1-2 tablespoon (15-30g) oil to sauce pan. Add onion, garlic and sun dried tomato to pan, cook until soft and golden.

While that is cooking, mash tofu (I use my fingers) until they get an even scrambled texture and add spices. I never measure, so use your own judgment on the spices.

I usually add 2 dashes red pepper, two dashes turmeric, salt the top of my mound twice and pepper it once, and add a pinch of flavored salt. Then mix it all in until evenly distributed.

When onion mix is cooked, add tofu and spinach. Heat through (until spinach is soft and wilted looking)

This makes 1-2 servings. I like it in a flour tortilla, like a breakfast burrito, or in vegan bread, like a breakfast sandwich, but eat as you like. I think it really tastes a lot like eggs.

Enjoy!

Serves: 1-2

Preparation time: 15 mins.

Tofu Scramble (Alternate Recipe) 

Ingredients

* 1 green onion
* 2 small cloves garlic
* 2 strips Smart bacon or other breakfast meat substitute
* 1/2 large block of firm tofu
* couple dashes of turmeric
* splash of liquid aminos
* pinch of nutritional yeast flakes
* oil (for the pan)
Directions

First, you've got to heat up the pan on medium- high heat with the oil to cook the bacon-but don't cook it too long or it will be overcooked once you're done. While you're cooking the bacon, start chopping up the garlic and green onion. press as much water from the tofu as possible, then use a cheese grater to grate the tofu into semi-small chunks. you could probably mash it a bit with a fork instead, but I find grating to be a lot quicker. After you have the tofu grated into a bowl, add the onion, garlic, bacon (cooked and cut into small pieces by this time), the turmeric and liquid aminos. You'll want to stir this up gently until you are satisfied that everything is well mixed. Put it in the pan (it should sizzle a bit) and sprinkle the nutritional yeast flakes over the top. Keep stirring occasionally for about 10 minutes or until you've got the desired look of scrambled "eggs."

I like to eat this with some hash browns, of course. This is very very tasty, if i do say so myself. Oh, and be careful with the turmeric. it stains everything yellow...

Serves: 2

Preparation time: about 20 min

Pancakes (Vegan) 

Ingredients

* 1 cup flour
* 2 teaspoons baking powder

* vegetable oil

Procedure
v This recipe is vegan; it contains no animal products of any kind.

1. Mix all dry ingredients: flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
2. Mix soy milk into the dry ingredients.
3. Heat a griddle until water sprinkled on it quickly evaporates. Spread a thin film of oil on the griddle.
4. Pour pancake batter on griddle to form 4- to 5-inch circles. Bubbles should start forming.

* Optionally, you can serve your pancakes with syrup or jam.
* Substituting rice milk for soy milk may make the pancakes fall apart more easily.

Paid Writing Opportunities 

Gather is a great forum to meet people, read entertaining and informative articles and earn money and gift cards while doing it. On average, I earn approximately $50 a month there just for commenting on articles and submitting a few of my own. The earning potential is definitely higher than that if you want to put more than a couple hours a week into it. Check it out.



MyLot is also a decent moneymaker. It doesn't pay as much for your time as Gather but it is still a worthy time investment. Thus far, I've been able to make the minimum payout every month without any referrals and commenting on posts just a few times a week.

This is a great collection of vegan breakfast foods. I am a vegan. Typically people don't have time to make a full breakfast, and good luck finding these items readily available in your local diner and/or sandwich shop.

I usually start every day with a shake. I have been having a shake for breakfast for many years. WHen I became a vegan, I had to make a couple of modifications, but it's basically the same thing as it was before. It's filling, satisfying, tasty, nutritious, and QUICK. Here's a link to my typical shake: http://veganbits.com/no-whey/
