The 10 Minute Scramble

10 Minute Scramble.

I was on the phone with my brother a few days ago and he had a request for my blog. He wanted me to post some recipes that are really, really easy to prepare. For starters I decided to make an easy breakfast scramble with simple ingredients. There are four main ingredients to this scramble: extra firm tofu, vegan cheese, vegan bacon, and jalapenos. It takes less than ten minutes to make. Simple right? Of course, you can add bell peppers, tomatoes, or other vegetables if you’d like. For this, though we are going to keep it simple and delicious.

So here you go John, this one is for you.

Easy Breakfast Scramble

Serves 2

Ingredients:

1 14 oz package extra firm tofu

8 strips vegan ‘bacon’ (I used LightLife smart bacon)

2/3 medium sized jalapeno, diced

1cup shredded vegan cheddar cheese (I used Daiya brand)

2 tbs nutritional yeast 

1 clove garlic, minced

1/2 tsp salt 

1/2 tsp pepper

Preparation:

• In a large bowl crumble the tofu into a ‘scrambled-egg’ like consistency.

• Add the jalapeno, shredded cheese, nutritional yeast, garlic, salt and pepper. Mix together.

• Heat a large non-stick skillet on medium heat and lay the 8 pieces of vegan bacon flat on the skillet.

• Cook for about 3-4 minutes (flipping pieces over half way through) or until the bacon becomes slightly crispy.
• Tear or cut the vegan bacon into smaller pieces (about 1/2 inch pieces).

Careful when tearing the vegan bacon- it's hot.

• Add the tofu mix to skillet and mix with bacon.

Mix everything together and cook for 3-4 minutes.

• Cook for 3-4 minutes. Enjoy!
