Tofu Scrambler
Tofu is a staple in many vegan diets, and for a good reason! Not only is it a great source of protein, but it’s also incredibly versatile. This tofu scrambler is the perfect example of how delicious and satisfying tofu can be.
Ingredients:
- 1 block of extra-firm tofu, pressed
- 1 small onion, diced
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 1 green bell pepper, diced
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast flakes
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- Salt and black pepper to taste
Instructions:
In a large skillet over medium heat, heat the oil until hot. Add the onions and bell peppers and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the tofu and cook for about 5 minutes more, stirring frequently. In a small bowl, mix the nutritional yeast flakes, cornstarch, salt, and black pepper to taste. Add this mixture to the skillet and cook for 1 minute more until heated. Serve hot.
Zucchini Bread Oatmeal
This zucchini bread oatmeal is a delicious and healthy twist on the classic breakfast dish. It’s perfect for those mornings when you want something hearty and filling but don’t want to spend much time in the kitchen.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup old-fashioned oats
- 1 cup cooked zucchini, mashed
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 1/2 cup apple sauce
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
Instructions:
Start by preheating your oven to 375 degrees F. Then, grease and flour in one loaf pan; set aside. Mix well in a large bowl with oats, zucchini, sugar, and salt. Stir in oil until well combined. In another large bowl, whisk together applesauce and vanilla until well combined. Stir in the flour and baking powder; mix until smooth. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients; mix until just blended. Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan. Bake for 50 to 55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes before removing from the pan to cool completely.
