Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 whole English muffins
- 2 tablespoons Vegan butter
- 0.5 block Firm tofu
- 0.5 teaspoons Turmeric powder
- 0.25 teaspoons Black salt (Kala Namak)
- 2 pieces Vegan sausage patties
- 2 slices Vegan cheese slices
- 1 cup Fresh spinach leaves
- 1 whole Tomato
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Instructions
1. Cut the English muffins in half and lightly toast them in a toaster or on a skillet over medium heat. Spread a tablespoon of vegan butter on each half while still warm.
2. Slice the block of tofu into two even slabs. Pat each piece dry with a paper towel. In a small bowl, mix turmeric powder, black salt, regular salt, and black pepper. Rub this mixture onto both sides of the tofu slabs.
3. Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the tofu slabs and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
4. In the same skillet, cook the vegan sausage patties according to package instructions, usually about 3-4 minutes per side, until nicely browned. Place a slice of vegan cheese on top of each patty in the last minute of cooking to melt.
5. Slice the tomato into rounds and set aside. Wash and dry the spinach leaves.
6. To assemble the Vegan Mighty McMuffin, place a tofu slab on one half of the toasted English muffin, followed by a vegan sausage patty with melted cheese, a few fresh tomato slices, and a handful of spinach leaves.
7. Top with the other half of the English muffin and serve immediately. Repeat the process for the second sandwich.
8. Enjoy your hearty and delicious vegan breakfast sandwich!
