Hagenburger Broccoli Scramble Breakfast

Hagenburger Broccoli Scramble Breakfast

Our Broccoli Breakfast is a family favorite and my 4 year old’s most common breakfast request. You can use fresh veggies in place of frozen, but frozen ingredients can be convenient. This recipe will easily serve six people, and leftovers taste great (especially wrapped in a whole grain tortilla for family members on the go).

Ingredients
16 oz frozen broccoli (Safeway brand Petite Broccoli Florets is one of my favorites)
8 oz frozen chopped collards or kale
1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped (dry packed, not in oil)

2-3 cloves of garlic, pressed/minced and set aside* for 10 minutes
14 oz package organic firm tofu (water packed)
1/2 tsp turmeric powder (or fresh grated)
1-2 Tbsp nutritional yeast (optional)
salt & pepper to taste

Procedure
Press/mince the garlic and set it aside for 10 minutes to maximize the cancer-fighting potential! Meanwhile, combine the broccoli, spinach and sun-dried tomatoes in a large skillet over medium heat. While the veggies and thawing and beginning to cook, drain the tofu, wrap in clean dish towel, squeeze out excess water, crumble and combine with turmeric and nutritional yeast. Once the broccoli is partially cooked, but still “crunchy”, add the garlic and cook for 2-3 minutes before adding the tofu mixture. Cook until the broccoli is the perfect texture and enjoy!
