Before I make it to the office every morning, I ALWAYS eat a big ole' breakfast. Whether it's pancakes, scrambled tofu, steel cut oats, or cheezy grits, I make sure I get plenty of fuel to get me through the morning. One of my long-time favorite day-starters is a variation on Bernard's Brown Rice Breakfast from The Garden of Vegan:
It's just crumbled tofu and brown rice, seasoned with a little soy sauce or Bragg's, served atop sprouted grain toast and drizzled with flax seed oil and organic ketchup. It sounds weird, I know. But it's so darn good. I love the way the flax oil lightly soaks into the bread and melds with the ketchup. And I love that it's a protein/whole grain-packed breakfast to start the day off right.
I always make a big batch of the tofu-rice mixture and heat up a little each morning to serve over two slices of toast. This morning, I ate my Brown Rice Breakfast with a cup of iced green tea and a glass of fresh-squeezed orange-grapefruit juice. Yum!
breakfast is my absolute favorite meal!!! that looks like a breakfast dish i am going to have to try!!
ReplyDeleteI love savory breakfasts.. and this looks great.. also, your ravioli looked delish too.
ReplyDeletea good breakfast will last you all day... thats the best part.. you dont get hungry!!!
ReplyDeletesigh: I wish I could eat tofu
I want a slice of that!
ReplyDeleteYumminess! I love rice for breakfast. I'm from Costa Rica and their breakfast staple is called Gallo Pinto (Painted Rooster). It's a mix of black beans and rice. There are a hundred variations (family to family) of how to spice up this dish. It's amazing. It's filling and yummy. I can totally see myself adding this brown rice dish to by brekky repertoire.
ReplyDeletei can't skip breakfast, unless it's for medical reasons. that looks really good, except i'd have to pour some gravy on it.
ReplyDeletexo jewy
i love it! brown rice for breakfast with some tofu sounds soooo goooood! especially on toast and with KETCHUP (i'm one to put ketchup on my ketchup)! i need to grab some flax oil, too - i hear it's so darn good for you! man, i also need to add Garden of Vegan to the list of awesome vegan cookbooks i need! :D
ReplyDeletefreshly squeezed orange-grapefruit juice sounds absolutely amazing! hells yeah!
This breakfast looks and sounds incredibly delicious and satisfying. It brings back fond memories as well: in a previous life, I used to put ketchup on my toast in the morning...
ReplyDeleteI have that recipe bookmarked, I've just been too lazy to try it =P
ReplyDeleteBreakfast is my favorite too!
Oh My... that does sound beyond yummy. I'm a little too lazy to cook in the mornings though... I can normally just manange to put some oats and soy milk together :-)
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like a tasty & freakishly healthy way to start the day. I am all about the savory breakfasts.
ReplyDeleteWhat a weird and yummy breakfast! Great way to use leftover brown rice, too. I love the Garden of Vegan!
ReplyDeleteyummm. i love breakfast! :)
ReplyDeleteOooh I'm gonna try that!
ReplyDeleteOh wow, I never would have thought of something like that. Sounds good!
ReplyDeleteYou're right, that does sound weird. I'll have to try it!
ReplyDeleteInteresting! For some reason, I automatically thought that ketchup was Sriracha! ha I really need to work on eating breakfast (and getting up earlier)...
ReplyDeleteThat would be really good right about now!
ReplyDeleteI totally thought of this post this morning. I had brown rice over toast with Braggs and ketchup. It was yum!
