While you're eating your breakfast burritos of sadness and death, with its amazing artery clogging and cancer causing properties, as you buy into the bs that bacon and eggs are a healthy breakfast, us vegans are eating breakfasts chock full fo veggies that taste fantastic.
Start with a whole wheat tortilla.
One slice of vegan cheese. I use Go-Veggie American cheese.
Then I made a quick tofu scramble with some leftover tofu. How do I create this magical tofu mix that looks like an egg? Simple. Brush a little coconut oil in a pan, sautee some onion, crumble on half a block of tofu, add 1 tsp. of Indian black salt (a.k.a. Kala Namak, it has an eggy smell to it), 2 tsp. of Nutritional Yeast, 1/2 tsp. of turmeric powder (some people are opposed to it, because they don't need their tofu to be egg-yellow. I add it because turmeric has so many health benefits), and salt and pepper. I like to cook it until it's browned, it tastes more like hard scrambled eggs.
A few slices of beefsteak tomatoes from the garden.
Luckily, I had leftover french fries. I have never been able to successfully resuscitate french fries, but I've learned they make a great potato hash for breakfast. As I crisped them up in a pan, I added some breakfast sausage. You can buy it at the store. I like to make the version from The Homemade Vegan Pantry: The Art of Making Your Own Staples, which is a simple, onion, mushroom, barley and vital wheat gluten mix that I steam in mason jars. I also happened to have a ton of spinach that needed to get finished off, so I chopped it up and threw it in.
Look at my pretty layers!
I toasted them in a pan with some coconut oil.
And voila!
Proof positive that vegans are eating food that looks and tastes as good as you meat-eaters are. Except my breakfast is actually healthy and isn't going to give me a heart attack or high cholesterol.
