Egg-Style Salad Sandwich

May 15, 2021 by Heather Leave a Comment

Egg-style Salad Sandwich 

This really is a fun spin on a classic breakfast, lunch or dinner sandwich my mom used to make for me regularly as a kid. 

I always grew up thinking an “egg sandwich” was scrambled eggs on toast with mayonnaise because that’s how she used to make it. 

As I got older I realized people were making “egg salad” differently with hard boiled eggs and I thought that was gross even before becoming vegan. 

So here’s my version that I know mom, (even though she would still prefer to eat real eggs) would appreciate. 

First you’re going to need to make my Simple Scrambled Tofu recipe and set it aside to cool.

Ingredients:

For the scrambled tofu full recipe here:

  • 12 oz extra firm tofu drained and crumbled⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
  • 3 tbsp vegetable broth⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
  • 1 tsp onion powder ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
  • 1 tsp garlic powder ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
  • 1 tsp turmeric 
  • Salt and pepper to taste

For the rest:

  • 1 stalk celery 
  • 1/4 cup vegan mayonnaise 
  • 2-4 slices of your favorite bread (depending on how many sandwiches you’re making) 
  • Favorite sandwich toppings like lettuce, tomato, avocado etc. 
  1. First you’re going to need to make my simple scrambled tofu recipe here and set that aside. 
  2. Toss 1/4 cup of your favorite Vegan Mayonnaise, I used follow your heart Veganaise, simple scrambled tofu, and chopped celery into a mixing bowl until well combined. 
  3. Toast your favorite whole grain or gluten free toast and top it with scrambled tofu salad and dress it up with your favorite garnishes, example sliced tomatoes, avocado, and lettuce are my favorites.
  4. Enjoy!

Simple Scrambled Tofu

April 18, 2020 by Heather Leave a Comment

scrambled tofu

Scrambled Tofu is one of my favorite things to make. Like scrambled eggs, they can be great to eat any time of the day. If you have been plant based for a while or are new to the lifestyle and you have not given them yet a try, you need to!

Once upon a time when I would go out for breakfast, my go to order was always a Belgium waffle with strawberries. I know what you’re thinking,.. what does that have to do with a blog post about scrambled tofu? Well back when I ate the standard American diet, I ate scrambled eggs very rarely. Lets all be honest here… they don’t taste like anything and they smell bad. Which is probably why everyone drowns them in ketchup and hot sauce. When I did eat eggs it was in the form of waffles or slapped between a couple pieces of bread with mayonnaise. (Which I grew up thinking was an egg sandwich.) When I got older I realized an “Egg Sandwich” was something totally different and eventually veganized that too, which you can find HERE. 

The great thing about tofu scramble is just like scrambled eggs, you can add anything to them such as fresh veggies, toppings or meat replacements. Or alternatively you can add tofu scramble to anything like toast, tortillas, or skillets to make a more protein rich meal anytime of the day.

 

Whether you do, did or don’t enjoy traditional scrambled eggs, you’re going to love these.

This Simple Scrambled Tofu is:

  • Dairy-free
  • Gluten-free
  • Nut-free
  • Easy to make

Ingredients

  • 12 oz extra firm tofu⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
  • 3 tbsp vegetable broth⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
  • 1 tbsp nutritional yeast ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
  • 1 tsp onion powder ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp Kala Namuk⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
  • 1 tsp turmeric
  • 1 tbsp vegan butter

Instructions

  • First you will need to drain and press all the water out of your tofu. This can be done by cutting your block of tofu in half and wrapping it in a towel. Then place your tofu under something heavy such as a pot push the excess water out. The longer you do this for the more flavor will absorb. I recommend a minimum of 15 minutes. Replacing the towel half way through.
  • Crumble tofu and toss in a bowl with nutritional yeast, garlic, onion and turmeric powder ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
  • Heat vegan butter in skillet ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
  • Add tofu and add 1 tbsp of vegetable broth until absorbed by the tofu⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
  • Repeat this step two more times with vegetable broth until fully absorbed. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
  • Remove from heat, add salt/pepper to taste and serve⠀⠀

Easiest Vegan Mac & Cheese Sauce

April 18, 2020 by Heather Leave a Comment

If you know me personally then you know that macaroni and cheese has always been one of my favorite things to eat. Which is why I gained so much weight, over the coarse of a year, when I gave up eating meat.

Like most vegans I was a Vegetarian first. For one year.

I said “I could never be vegan, I like to eat macaroni and cheese too much.”

Then I watched the documentary Got The Facts On Milk and decided to never eat or drink dairy again.

Once I started learning about the effect of starches and nutritional yeast. I began playing with food. Trying to come up with the perfect “cheese” sauce. I made it with potatoes, I made it with beans, I made it with carrots and butternut squash. Oh and please don’t remind me about the time I made it with cashews before owning a Vitamix… All variations were good but something was missing. That slurry sound you get when you stir the sauce into the noodles… I know you know what I’m talking about. Its that creaminess that we all find comfort in.

One sleepless night (probably after another failed attempt to re create my long lost love in a bowl) a light bulb turned on in my head.

S I L K   T O F U !

Yes! of course! Why haven’t I thought of this sooner? It’s creamy and basically flavorless. Which means I can add spices and other ingredients to make it taste exactly how I need it to.

Lets talk about Tofu for a moment. Tofu in general gets a bad rap and I’m not sure why. Tofu is a protein-rich low fat bean product made from soy milk. There are three types of tofu that you can choose from in the grocery store. Silk. Firm. Extra Firm. Extra firm tofu if the most dense and contains the least amount of water. This makes it the “meatiest” in texture and can be baked, fried, air fried and grilled. Firm tofu is made with a little bit more water remaining and is great for making things like Simple Tofu Scramble and Easiest Ricotta Cheese. Silken Tofu contains the most amount of water and has a creamy yogurt like consistency which can be used to make smoothies, dips, condiments, and my favorite, pasta sauces. Which is why you will be seeing Silk Tofu a lot throughout my blog. Especially in some of my favorite pasta dishes like this Creamy Pesto Sauce.

This Easy Vegan Mac and Cheese Sauce is:

  • Dairy-free
  • Gluten-free
  • Nut-free
  • Easy to make

Easiest Vegan Mac and Cheese Sauce

 

This is the easiest, quickest vegan cheese sauce you will ever make. This nut free, gluten free, creamy, dreamy cheese sauce is best poured over your favorite pasta. Here’s the recipe.

 

  • 1 can garbanzo beans (or chickpeas (do not strain))
  • 1 14oz tofu (silk )
  • 1/4 cup nutritional yeast
  • 1 tbsp arrowroot starch
  • 1/4 tsp paprika
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/4 cup vegetable broth (as needed to thin out the sauce)
  1. Add all ingredients to your Vitamix or high speed blender except for the vegetable broth.

  2. Use the vegetable broth as needed if the sauce gets to thick and stops blending.
