Recipe:

2 (14 oz.) Extra firm tofu, drained well

3 Tbsp. Earth Balance vegan butter

3 Tbsp. nutritional yeast 

1 tsp. each- garlic powder, turmeric, chicken seasoning, paprika 

Ground black Sea salt (regular salt if you don't have it, but black salt is preferred)

Fresh cracked pepper

 8 flour tortillas 

2 cups cooked, shredded kale (optional)

I prepared package vegan bac'n or sausage, crumbled (optional)

Leftover veggies like mushrooms, onions and peppers (optional)

Vegan cheese (optional)

Salsa (optional)

Method:

Melt vegan butter over medium heat. 

Add your tofu, crumbling as you add it to the pan to resemble scrambled eggs.

Add nutritional yeast, spices, salt & pepper to tofu.

Turn heat to medium- high and cook tofu until all liquid is absorbed, about 10-15 minutes, depending if you liked a softer scramble or a hard scrambled texture.

In a large mixing bowl, combine tofu, potatoes, kale, vegan bac'n or sausage, leftover veggies, and vegan cheese (or any combination you like with your tofu).

Mix well and divide evenly between the 8 tortillas. 

Top tofu with salsa (optional) and roll up tightly into a burrito.

Want something easy for breakfast that you can cook the night before? I have the recipe for you! These are easy and they can even be frozen & reheated if you like to "batch cook" ( which I LOVE to do!). The picture is a bit misleading, these are mini muffin sized, perfect for dipping into warm maple syrup and getting your fingers all sticky...that's important to my kids. Fun breakfast meals are always a plus at our house because it helps to wake the "sleepy heads" up before school in the morning. Hope you will enjoy this easy and convenient with your favorite breakfast buddies.
