HOW TO MAKE A VEGAN PESTO SCRAMBLE {DR. SEUSS INSPIRED GREEN EGGS}

Vegan Pesto Scramble {Dr. Seuss Inspired Green Eggs}This vegan pesto scramble recipe is vegan and gluten-free. This recipe is yummy, simple, quick to make.


TOOLS: 

  • Measuring Cups (I prefer and use both stainless steel measuring cups and Pyrex measuring cups.)
  • Glass bowls or glass containers (I love and use these Pyrex storage containers because they’re glass and work great)
  • Large skillet pan (I use this range of pans.)
  • Potato masher (Optional. It’s what I like to use. This potato masher is the one I’m using in the photo below.)
  • Glass Blender, Vitamix, or other blender (I have and love this Vitamix.)

INGREDIENTS:

Organic Ingredients are preferable.

  • 1/2 Cup Olive Oil
  • 1/4 Pine Nuts
  • 1/2 Cup Fresh Basil
  • 1 Block of Extra-Firm Tofu
  • Small amount of oil for cooking the tofu. (I used coconut oil.)

INSTRUCTIONS:

    • Measure and get together all the ingredients.
    • Heat small amount of oil in the pan. I used coconut oil for this part.
    • Scramble tofu in the pan either by breaking it up or using a potato masher. Cook on a medium heat, moving the tofu around and turning it over until all the tofu is warm and cooked. Approximately 5 minutes.
    • While the tofu is cooking, put the olive oil and pine nuts in a blender and blend on a medium speed. Add basil leaves and blend until it’s a smooth and creamy pesto.
    • Add the pesto to the cooked tofu and mix together.

Here are the healthy ingredients: organic olive oil, organic pine nuts, organic fresh basil, and organic extra-firm tofu. Measure and get all the ingredients together.

Heat some oil in a large pan. I used coconut oil, but you could use any oil you like. Scramble the tofu by either breaking it apart in the pan or using a potato masher like I did in this photo. The potato masher is really easy to use with the tofu, and it really makes the tofu like scrambled eggs.

Cook on a medium heat, moving the tofu around and turning it over until all the tofu is warm and cooked. Approximately 5 minutes.

For the kids’ version of green eggs inspired by Dr. Seuss’s Green Eggs and Ham, leave off the basil leaves.

My 3-year-old niece, Zoey, had a lot of fun eating the green eggs I made for her! She was really excited and said, “yummy!” as soon as she ate her first bite. She even asked for seconds and is eating her second serving here. 🙂
