CBC Saturday Morning

Thanks to Russell Bowers on CBC radio 1 for letting me talk up our cookbook this week. Check him out every Saturday morning from 6 to 9 am on Daybreak Alberta. You will also find a list of a few interesting places to eat brunch in Edmonton and in Calgary on the site.

If you would like to cook a vegan brunch at home, try this recipe out.

Tofu Scramble

1 block of firm organic tofu, crumbled
1 onion, diced
1 garlic clove, minced
2 carrots, grated
1 celery, sliced fine
1 red pepper, diced
1 cup chickpeas or lentils, cooked
1 cup leftover grain or rice, cooked
2 T oil
3 T nutritional yeast
herbs and spices to taste

For example: curry & raisins, or sun-dried tomatoes & basil, or cumin, black beans & corn, etc.

Mix all ingredients into a big bowl and let marinate for at least 30 min. Make it the night before for a quick start in the morning. Add a little more oil to a fry pan and cook on medium heat until it is a bit crispy and browned (about 30 min). Meanwhile, you can make the hashbrowns and toast.
This recipe is great to use up any leftovers and vegetables in the fridge. adapted from mavis.
