Tofu Hash

This morning's breakfast recipe was, essentially, an accident. I wanted a tofu scramble, but my tofu hadn't thawed yet. Then I decided on a gala apple and some tempeh bacon (which I forgot to pull out of the freezer). I really wasn't feeling a protein shake.

I had a single tofu burger patty in the fridge that I got from Trader Joe's. I am really digging this product! They come 2 to a pack, they are super inexpensive, and 100% organic tofu and veggies. They are also delicious. I am so glad that there are companies creating things like tempeh bacon strips (Lightlife) and the aforementioned burger patty--options that aren't processed from soy protein isolates, or full of pesticides. Anyways...

I washed and grated 1 red skin potato. Next, I minced two spring onion stalks, chopped the tofu burger into cubes, and minced a quarter of a jalapeno (cored and seeded). I drizzled a bit of olive oil in a saute pan and added the onions, potatoes, jalapenos, and the tofu cubes all at once. I sauteed until the potatoes started to brown, then I added sea salt and cracked black pepper. Finally, I garnished with just a touch of cayenne pepper.

This was just enough for a single, delicious, and balanced serving.
