Vegan Recipes to Start Your Day
Swiss Omelette with Fresh Herbs, Banana Pancakes, Tofu Scramble
I normally begin my day with a smoothie or bowl of muesli and fruit. But sometimes I crave a bit more…something fast and delicious that stimulates warm food memories.
The three recipes I present in this week’s vegan kitchen deliver on all three points. The Swiss omelette is a bit unusual…and slightly playful. The pancakes and tofu scramble are more traditional in the vegan and non-vegan world. These are simple and fast recipes to make. They bring big flavor with plenty of possible variations to explore.
I hope you give these recipes a try in your kitchen during the next week or month – they are great starters to kick-start your day. As always, I appreciate hearing from you, so feel free to leave a comment, share your creations or let me know what’s on your mind.
Swiss Omelette with Mixed Herbs
I enjoyed making a traditional French-style egg omelette during my pre-vegan chef days. I learned to make them light and airy, and in less than 2 minutes. These omelettes were delicious filled or topped with an array of seasonal herbs.
A Swiss omelette is something completely different – I would say it is sort of an omelette with a pancake character. Traditional recipes use eggs, milk and flour to form a thick-ish batter. It is usually cooked in a smaller pan like a crêpe only thicker.
