Breakfast Tofu Stacker

This is a delicious breakfast stacker perfect of a chilly winter day. It is hearty, full of flavor and can be easily adapted for anything that you have in your fridge. Depending on how hearty of a breakfast you want it can make 3+ servings.

Here's what you need

• 1 teaspoon coconut oil
• 4 cloves of garlic - sliced
• 1 medium sweet potato
• 1 package firm tofu - cubed
• 1 can black beans - drained and rinsed
• 1/4 cup Daiya Cheddar Cheese
• 2 tablespoons vegan mayonnaise
• 1/4 cup nutritional yeast flakes
• 1/2 teaspoon curry powder
• 1/2 teaspoon chipotle powder
• 6 corn tortillas
• Tortilla chip crumbs (if desired)

Here's what to do

1. Scrub down your sweet potato really well, if you want to peel it you can but we leave the skin on. Using a mandolin, slice your sweet potato nice and thin, if you'd like a chunkier sweet potato you can just cube the sweet potato instead. Once fully sliced take about 10 slices at a time and stack them on top of each other, cut 1/4 inch strips in one direction and rotate 90 degrees to cut small squares.
2. Heat a pan over medium heat and add coconut oil. Once slightly warmed add the garlic, and stir. Once slightly caramelized add the sweet potatoes and cook until tender.
3. Add tofu to the pan and cook until it is fully heated through. Finally, add the beans and stir occasionally until the beans are warmed through.
4. Transfer the contents of the pan to a large bowl. Stir in the Daiya cheese until melted. Then, Add the vegan mayonnaise, yeast flakes, curry powder and chipotle powder. Stir to combine.
5. Warm the corn tortillas either in a dry pan on medium heat
6. Place one tortilla on a plate, and add a generous scoop of the tofu mixture. Add another tortilla and then a slightly smaller generous scoop of tofu. If desired, sprinkle on a few crumbs from some tortilla chips.

The filling for this dish is so versatile and delicious. You can easily use this inside of a burrito, tacos, or chill it and use it similar to a tuna/chicken salad for sandwiches. While still warm, mixing in some spinach would be a delicious addition. And, since it is the start of a new year and many people are juicing you can save your juice pulp in the freezer to add to recipes like this one. Some celery, carrot and/or kale pulp would as some nice flavor and additional fiber. Enjoy.
