Ingredients

• 2 pieces vegan sausage patties
• 2 slices vegan cheddar cheese slices
• 0.25 block firm tofu
• 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
• 0.25 teaspoon turmeric powder
• 0.25 teaspoon black salt (kala namak)
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 2 pieces whole grain English muffins
• 1 small avocado
• 1 cup baby spinach leaves
• 1 medium tomato

Directions

Step 1

Slice the tofu into two even slabs to resemble the size of an English muffin. Pat dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture.

Step 2

In a small bowl, combine nutritional yeast, turmeric powder, black salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

Step 3

Rub the spice mixture over each tofu slab, ensuring even coating.

Step 4

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the tofu slabs and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, until they are lightly golden and heated through. Remove from the pan and set aside.

Step 5

In the same skillet, cook the vegan sausage patties according to the package instructions until browned and heated through. This typically takes about 3-4 minutes per side. Top each cooked patty with a slice of vegan cheddar cheese and cover the pan with a lid for 1-2 minutes to allow the cheese to melt slightly.

Step 6

While the tofu and sausage are cooking, toast the English muffins until golden brown.

Step 7

Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Mash the avocado in a small bowl with a fork until smooth and spreadable. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Step 8

Slice the tomato into thin rounds.

Step 9

To assemble the sandwich, spread mashed avocado on the bottom half of each toasted English muffin. Layer with baby spinach leaves, a slice of tofu 'egg', a sausage patty with melted cheese, and top with tomato slices.

Step 10

Complete the sandwich with the top half of the English muffin. Serve immediately and enjoy your tasty Vegan Sausage Cheddar & Egg Sandwich!
