Tofu Omelette

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

    1 brick of firm tofu

    1 small clove garlic, pressed

    1 tablespoon minced green onion

    1/8 teaspoon turmeric

    salt and pepper to taste

    fillings of choice

Directions:

Serves: app.2.

Preparation time: 10 minutes.

The key to a tofu omelette is to grate the tofu and then very gently mix in the seasonings (garlic, onions, turmeric, salt and pepper).  The long strands of tofu create a lattice that gives the omelette structural integrity. Once the tofu is mixed, pour off any water that has collected in the bottom of the bowl and then arrange the tofu in two omelette-shaped patties on a heated, oiled nonstick or well-seasoned skillet. Cook the omelettes at a medium heat for 3 to 5 minutes, until much of the moisture is evaporated and the edges look a bit dry. Fill with whatever you like, fold and serve.

The Best Breakfast Scramble Ever!

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

    Cheez sauce:

    1/2 cup flour

    1/2 cup nutritional yeast

    1 teaspoon garlic powder

    2 cups water

    1 teaspoon yellow mustard

    4 tablespoons or less of vegan margarine

    Stir fry:

    1/2 onion

    1/2 green pepper

    1 tub drained and crumbled extra firm tofu (not silken style)

    cooking oil

    turmeric (optional)

    salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

Make Cheez Sauce:

Mix first 3 ingredients together in sauce pan. Add H2O and mix thoroughly. Heat on Med until thick and bubbly. Remove from heat and add mustard and margarine (I like Earth Balance). Set aside.  *I got the recipe for this sauce from this site (cheesy enchiladas)*

Stir Fry:

Saute up some onion, and green pepper in oil.  When they are good and soft, move them to the sides of the pan and form an empty circle in the middle for your tofu. Add more oil to the middle of the pan, then add your drained, crumbled tofu (don't use silken, use extra firm). When it starts to get golden, mix in the peppers and onion and keep frying.  You can add some turmeric for color if you like.

When it looks like you could eat it, add the nut.  yeast sauce and mix it all in to coat until that becomes golden brown too. I saute this for another couple of minutes.  You might not need all of the sauce. I save the leftovers for pizza or nachos.

Add salt and pepper to taste.

Serves: 3-4

Preparation time: 20 minutes

Egg McVegans

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

    1 pound extra firm tofu

    1/4 cup apple cider vinegar

    1/4 cup olive oil

    1/2 teaspoon salt

    1 package vegan Canadian bacon

    vegan cheese of your choice (one that melts well, like Follow Your Heart Vegan Gourmet’, or Tofutti singles)

    vegan English muffins

    vegan margarine.

    (optional) Vegenaise

Directions:

Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

Take the block of extra firm tofu and press it to get as much of the water out as you can. After you do that you take a drinking glass which is about the same size around at the top as the English muffins are, cut around the cup (or if you want, press the glass into the tofu) so that the tofu comes out round in shape. Take the round piece of tofu and cut it in half horizontally, so you end up with two circular pieces. Take the two halves and cut those into thirds, so that you end up with six round pieces of tofu that are about 1/2 inch thick. If you don't want to make 6 English muffins you can cut the tofu into four pieces if you like, which will yield a thicker egg.

On a rimmed baking sheet, pour the apple cider vinegar, olive oil, and salt and mix together. Put the tofu on this mixture and coat both sides. Bake for 10 minutes on one side, then flip and bake for another 10 minutes. (I usually cut up the extra little pieces of tofu and include them in the cooking, they are good to snack on).

Place the veggie Canadian bacon on a large frying pan on a medium low to low heat, flip it often and don't allow it to dry up, as it will turn up on the edges.

After the tofu pieces are baked, turn off the heat and place a slice of the vegan cheese on top of each of the tofu rounds. I usually make the vegan cheese circular as well, but its your call.  Place back in the oven to allow the vegan cheese to melt.

Toast the English muffins, and butter them on both sides with the vegan margarine of your choice, or if you are using Vegenaise put Vegenaise on one side and margarine on the other.  Place one of the tofu rounds and Canadian bacon slices between the English muffin halves, salt and pepper to taste (if you want) and they are ready to eat.

Serves: 6

Preparation time: 25 minutes
