Vegan JUST Scramble

Hello everyone,

Are you a breakfast person? Growing up my typical breakfast was PopTarts, Eggos, or cereal. On the weekends my mom would make pancakes or French toast. Eggs were occasionally a central part of the meal, but I was never a huge fan. After going vegan, I quickly fell in love with tofu scrambles and other faux ‘egg’ meals. However, scrambled eggs and omelets were a rare treat on a vegan restaurant menu—not something I would make at home. Well that’s all changed now that JUST Egg launched.

JUST Egg scrambles and tastes like eggs. But it’s egg-free, non-GMO, cholesterol-free, dairy-free and still includes 5g of protein per serving. In my honest opinion, this is the best “fake” egg on the market. It’s so easy to cook and tastes great. One of the primary ingredients is mung beans, and I’m not surprised. A friend from many years ago used to make “omelet-like” mung bean pancakes for me on the weekend. I always loved them so I’m not surprised I really like this vegan egg alternative. Anyway, after going through two bottles over the course of a few weeks, I perfected my Vegan JUST Scramble recipe. The texture is perfectly soft, but also slightly crisp, with a low-key savory flavor ready for sautéed veggies and your favorite vegan cheese. Check out this quick and easy recipe below.

Cheers and happy eating!

Old Fashioned Vegan Coleslaw

Hello friends!

What’s more American than some good old fashioned cole slaw? Well…maybe apple pie, but I’d say this traditional side dish makes the top ten list. Being vegan, cole slaw is something I don’t eat very often. However, it’s a side dish that I used to love as a kid. Since Hampton Creek has such an amazing line of faux mayos, I decided to give this old fashioned dish a vegan spin.

The recipe is simple, using just seven main ingredients and taking about 10 minutes of prep time. Why not give this a try? It’s sure to satisfy vegans and non-vegans alike!

Let me know what you think!

Cheers,

Jocelyn
