Method

Tofu Scramble

  1. 1

    Prepare the Tofu

    Drain and press the firm tofu to remove excess moisture. Crumble the tofu into small pieces.

  2. 2

    Cook the Tofu

    In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the crumbled tofu, turmeric powder, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until heated through and slightly golden.

  3. 3

    Add Spinach

    Add the chopped spinach and cook for an additional 2 minutes until wilted. Remove from heat and set aside.

Black Beans

  1. 4

    Heat the Beans

    In a small saucepan, combine the canned black beans, cumin, and salt. Heat over medium heat for 5 minutes until warmed through. Stir occasionally.

Tomatillo Salsa

  1. 5

    Prepare the Salsa

    In a blender, combine tomatillos, fresh cilantro, lime juice, jalapeño pepper, and salt. Blend until smooth. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Potato & Veggie Hash

  1. 6

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Peel and dice the potatoes into small cubes. Chop the bell pepper and onion.

  2. 7

    Cook the Hash

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced potatoes and cook for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they begin to soften.

  3. 8

    Add Veggies

    Add the chopped bell pepper and onion to the skillet. Season with salt and black pepper. Cook for an additional 5-7 minutes until the vegetables are tender.

  4. 9

    Add Vegan Cheese

    Stir in the vegan cheese and allow it to melt slightly before removing from heat.

Assembly
