Chia seeds are fascinating little bundles of Omega-3s. When they’re soaked in water, a gelatinous coating forms around the seed, very much like tomato seeds. I like mashed banana in this because it thickens the mixture while adding a lot of volume. If the pudding is too thin for your liking, you can add more chia seeds and let it sit for 10 more minutes.
You’d think that egg salad, which is made with eggs and mayonnaise (which is also made with eggs) might be a little hard to make if you don’t eat, well, eggs. Turns out you’d be wrong! These tofu egg-less salads are surprisingly convincing and, dare I say, even better than the classic. What’s more, you don’t have to eat it all in one sitting for fear of it going bad. Rather, leave it covered in the refrigerator overnight to let the spices seep into the tofu and make it taste even better the next day.
A little roasting goes a long way, especially when you have the perfect combination of waxy red potatoes and herbs. Don’t limit these to only breakfast; they’d make a perfectly decent side dish to any of our main recipes.
