Vegan Brunch: Homestyle Recipes Worth Waking Up For--From Asparagus Omelets to Pumpkin Pancakes
By Isa Chandra Moskowitz
Da Capo Lifelong Books - 2009
Basic Scrambled Tofu : page 19
Just a warning, she's pretty heavy-handed with the "nooch", so you may want to adjust there. I followed a tip from Veg News and did not press the tofu first. I found it too crumbly for me, I wouldn't do it that way again. I added cremini mushrooms to this. This is delicious and basic enough that it's a good tofu scramble to have in your weekend breakfast arsenal.
Equipment needed: a cast-iron pan is desirable, but not essential.

Basic Tempeh Scramble : page 24
This recipe is easy and delicious; it's pretty much my go-to tempeh scramble now. There are only a handful of ingredients. The thyme and tempeh really are a fabulous flavor pairing. From a time and ingredients standpoint, this is easier to make than her tofu scramble (although neither are that difficult.)
Equipment needed: cast-iron skillet desirable, but not essential.

Coffee Chip Muffins : page 166
This recipe is pretty simple. There aren't that many ingredients, and none of them are obscure or hard to find (as long as you can get your hands on vegan chocolate chips.) I thought they were ever so slightly dry, but the recipients didn't. The recipe called for instant coffee grounds; I hate instant coffee, so I just used the drip coffee grounds that I had on hand. Despite the fact there was no discernible binder in the ingredients list, these held together just dandy.
Equipment needed: 12-cup muffin tin
