Recipes Stella Blues Tofu Scramble We just returned from a wonderful week on Maui. Several days we ate breakfast at a restaurant called Stella Blues and Heather and Mary really enjoyed their Tofu Scramble, which they served with country-style potatoes and onions. We didn’t ask for the recipe, however Mary’s version is much better than the original!
Preparation Time: 15 minutes
Steam broccoli until just tender, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat, drain and set aside. Meanwhile, place the onions and mushrooms in a large non-stick frying pan with the water. Cook, stirring frequently, for 5 minutes. Drain off any excess liquid, except for about 2 tablespoons. Add tofu cubes and cook for another 3 minutes. Add steamed broccoli, tahini sauce, soy sauce and Sriracha. Mix well and cook until heated through and slightly thickened, about 2-3 minutes. Serve warm. Hints: This is delicious served with roasted potatoes or hash browns, for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Tahini Sauce Make this ahead of time and store in the refrigerator until needed. This will keep for several days in the refrigerator. Makes 2 cups ¾ cup
tahini Combine
all ingredients in a food processor and process until smooth.
These are one of the healthiest burgers you can make for yourself and your family. And they taste great too! They may be frozen after baking for later use.

Combine the potatoes, lentils and onion in a large bowl. Add the remaining ingredients and mix together well. Shape into patties on 2 non-stick baking sheets.
