Breakfast Burrito
Tofu takes on the morning with a little turmeric for colour and a little black salt to give it that "eggy" flavour. Toss in some of your favourite veggies, lightly cooked, wrap it all in a warm tortilla and enjoy! Serve with a side of hashbrowns or some sauteed baby potatoes and you have a wonderful breakfast or brunch!
In a bowl, crumble your tofu and add the black salt and turmeric. Add a little salt and pepper to taste.
Heat a frying pan with a little oil or vegan butter.
Fry your onion until it is translucent but not brown.
Add in your chopped peppers and asparagus, chopped into bite-sized pieces. Make sure there are no tough end pieces!
Cook until veggies are tender and then add your crumbled tofu "eggs". Cook until all is warm and tasty.Adjust salt and pepper to taste.
While it is cooking, warm a dry frying pan. Use it to warm your tortillas just before serving.
Put your veggie/tofu mixture in the tortilla, chop the cherry tomatoes in half and sprinkle them over your filling. Roll up and plate with a side of sauteed potatoes and/or mushrooms cooked up with a little fresh dill. Enjoy!
Recipe Notes
Thanks to my daughter, Laura, for introducing me me to using tofu this way. I don't miss scrambled eggs any more! A side of sweet baby potatoes, fried up with some mushrooms and some fresh dill, makes this a very tasty and satisfying meal!
