Hash Brown Scramble

Jul

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

  • 2 cups shredded red or sweet potato
  • 1/4 cup chopped red onion
  • 1/4 cup chopped red pepper
  • 1 cup finely sliced kale
  • 2 cloves chopped garlic
  • 1/4 cup crumbled firm tofu or vegan breakfast sausage
  • 1/4 cup shredded cauliflower
  • 1/4 cup nutritional yeast
  • 2 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil or sesame oil
  • salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

I learned to make this shortly after
going from vegetarian to vegan. One of
my favorite breakfasts when vegetarian
was scrambled egg hash browns with
veggies and cheddar vegan cheese. I adapted
this recipe to a vegan version and I
love this more than the original!

Prepare ingredients sans oil and yeast
in a bowl and mix together. Heat a
cast iron skillet with the oil on high
heat and stir fry until the onions
begin to brown. Stir in nutritional
yeast until mixture is coated.

Turn onto a plate and enjoy! I usually
eat this with some fresh fruit and a
glass of soymilk. The sesame seed oil
is better when you are craving a “rich”
breakfast, like those I eat before a
big run.

Lots of B-vitamins, calcium, fiber,
protein, and healthy fats to get you
moving!

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

  • Prepare this the night before:
  • 1/3 cup oatmeal
  • 1/3 cup regular soymilk
  • Prepare in morning:
  • 1/3 cup oatmeal or 1/3 cup of another cereal
  • all the berries you can eat (eg. raspberry and blackberries)
  • 1/3 cup vegan soy yogurt ( I use strawberry)
  • 1 kiwi sliced or half an apple
  • 6 almonds sliced

Directions:

Mix the oatmeal and soy milk together, and allow the
oatmeal to soak up the soy milk in a fridge overnight.

In the morning, combine the
oatmeal/soymilk blend with the other
oatmeal or cereal, the berries, soy
yogurt, kiwi or apple and the almonds.

And Enjoy!!!

Serves: 1

Preparation time: 6 min

Ingredients (use vegan versions):

  • 1 cup almond milk
  • 1/2 cup dried oats
  • 1 scoop vanilla soy protein powder
  • 2 tablespoon wheat germ or ground flaxseed
  • 1/4 cup chopped walnuts
  • 1/4 cup dried cranberries
  • maple syrup or other sweetener to taste

Directions:

Mix almond milk, vanilla protein
powder, and oats together in a sauce
pan over medium heat.

While cooking set wheat germ or
flaxseed, walnuts, and dried
cranberries in serving bowl. When oats
have finished cooking, pour mixture
over dried ingredients, mix together,
and sweeten to taste.

I know this sounds a lot like just
plain ole oatmeal, but this turns out
pretty thick. It’s a lot like eating
cookie dough, which for breakfast feels
sinful but this recipe is actually
pretty healthy! It’s loaded with
protein, carbs, and omega 3′s. A great
way to start the day and very simple!

You can add mashed banana in lieu of
the maple syrup if you’d like as well.
