Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Vegan English muffins
- 200 grams Firm tofu
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Nutritional yeast
- 1 tablespoon Avocado oil
- 4 slices Vegan cheese slices
- 1 large, ripe Avocado
- 1 large Tomato
- 1 cup Baby spinach leaves
- 2 tablespoons Vegan mayonnaise
- 1 teaspoon Lemon juice
Instructions
Prepare the tofu scramble: Drain and press the tofu to remove excess moisture. Crumble the tofu into small pieces using your hands or a fork.
In a medium bowl, mix crumbled tofu with turmeric, salt, black pepper, and nutritional yeast until well combined.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add avocado oil. Once hot, add the tofu mixture and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until heated through and lightly browned. Set aside.
Toast the English muffins: Slice the English muffins in half and toast them in a toaster or oven until golden brown.
Prepare the avocado and tomato: Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Slice into thin strips. Slice the tomato into rounds.
Assemble the sandwiches: Spread vegan mayonnaise on the bottom half of each toasted English muffin. Add a layer of fresh spinach leaves, followed by a few slices of avocado and tomato.
Top with a portion of the tofu scramble, and then place a slice of vegan cheese on top of the tofu. Close the sandwich with the other half of the English muffin.
Optional: For a melty cheese experience, wrap each sandwich in foil and place in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for about 5 minutes.
Serve warm, and enjoy your Vegan Classic English Muffin Sandwich.
