Merry Christmas. This year we have new vegans (yay!!), those limiting their meat intake (yay too!), a baby (!), and my daughter, who has been diagnosed with Celiac disease. So.. I had to prepare a complete vegan & gluten free breakfast for Christmas brunch. Challenge accepted!
I probably was great entertainment for the staff at our local Harris Teeter. I walked back and forth through the store, looking at Pinterest (my saving grace most night!), searching for ingredients, and coming up with a plan to make tge best vegan & gluten free breakfast for my family - one that even the picky ones would eat & enjoy (no pressure 😂).
This was the filling, crowd pleasing recipe I can up with to make everyone happy. My entire meal plan is in the footnotes, if you want to know how to make a gluten free & vegan brunch fir your family.
Recipe:
2 bags frozen tater tots
Olive oil
paprika
8 oz. Sliced mushrooms, chopped
8 oz. Kale, chopped & de -stemed
1 Tbsp. Cumin
