Ingredients:
- 5 oz firm tofu, drained and pressed to remove excess liquid
- 1 TBS nutritional yeast
- 1 green onions, finely chopped
- 2 mushrooms, finely chopped
- 1/8 cup tomato, finely chopped and drained to remove excess liquid
- 1/2 bell pepper, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup broccoli, finely chopped
- 2 oz sweet potato- diced
- Salt & Pepper- to taste
Method:
- Preheat the oven to 375°F and prepare a 12 cup muffin tray by spraying with a little cooking oil or lining with silicon baking cups.
- Place pressed firm tofu, nutritional yeast into a blender, and blend until the ingredients are liquefied and creamy.
- Add the vegetables, salt, pepper and any other seasonings of choice into the blender. Scrape down the sides and stir the vegetables into the tofu mixture using a spatula.
- Scoop tofu vegetable mixture and evenly divide into muffin tins
- Bake for 25 to 30 minutes until a toothpick inserted into the “egg” bites comes out clean. Enjoy!
Uneaten vegan “egg” bites should be stored in the fridge, where they’ll keep for around 3 days. They are delicious cold or left to warm up at room temperature for a few minutes. Alternatively, you can give them a (very) short zap in the microwave – around 30-60 seconds. Of course, you can also freeze your vegan “egg” bites and thaw them on demand. However, freezing changes the texture of tofu – so be prepared for a slightly chewier result.
