All Day Big Cooked Breakfast

There’s nothing like a cooked breakfast. And this one is so good, why keep it for mornings?!

Although animal-free foods are naturally cholesterol-free, try using oil spray to further reduce the amount of oil you cook in – and serve with fresh fruit or freshly squeezed juice for an added vitamin C boost.

Here are some ideas – plus recipe links and product information. You don’t have to include them all but it will give you some ideas of just how good a ‘vegan full British’ can be! (with perhaps a few influences from the USA and the Caribbean).

OPTIONS – choose a few from this list

• Vegan sausages (Fry’s; Morrison’s; VBites; Linda McCartney; Wicken Fen; Vegetarian Choice.. Dee’s and Dragonfly sell a GF range). Home made? Try our Nutty Mushroom Sausage or Seitan Sausages
• Rashers – ready to cook vegan bacon or tempeh – VBites; Tofurkey; Impulse. Seitan Bacun or home-made tempeh rashers
• Baked beans – nearly all vegan unless meat sausages added
• Tomatoes, fried or grilled (try adding a bit of fried garlic and olive oil, yum)
• Tofu Scramble: two versions for you – Scrambled Tofu with Fresh Tomatoes & Basil OR Maryanne’s Super-fast Silken Tofu Scramble
• Hash browns (McCain’s are vegan)
• Mushrooms, sliced, cooked with or without garlic, but fried in a little oil and drizzled with soya sauce – use tamari for a GF option
• Pancakes – use our recipe but reduce the liquid a little to make a thicker, American-style breakfast version
• French toast – vegan-style
• Fried plantain or banana
• Toast
• Toasted pumpkin and sunflower seeds
• Alfalfa sprouts
• Avocado

Shoyu and tamari are the best varieties of soya sauce, tamari being the wheat-free and gluten-free option. Try Kikkoman, Essential, Sanchi or Clearspring brands.
