Traditional full English breakfast – vegan style
by CourtneySherwood on Jan.30, 2010, under Uncategorized
I’m hosting this week, noon Sunday, 1201 NE 21st Ave.
When I visited London for a week during my Grinnell years, the hostel I was at offered a traditional English breakfast. I didn’t really understand what I was looking at, though, and so I ate the eggs and avoided everything else. I’d like to revisit the past, only this time enjoy the full breakfast — but modified to make it vegan.
Here’s what we’ll have:
- Vegan baked beans, from a can.
- Fresh sliced tomatoes. (We can fry these if anyone would prefer them that way.)
- Tempeh bacon.
- Tofu scramble.
- Fried mushrooms, sprinkled w/salt & pepper and cooked in olive oil.
- Vegan sausages.
- Hash browns – cooked from pre-shredded grocery store potatoes.
The only major thing missing is Earl Gray tea – though orange juice or mimosas would be a fine addition too. If you’re feeling really ambitious, you could make baked beans ahead of time and bring them — but I think canned beans will be fine.
Come hungry! And please, RSVP so I get enough of everything.

Brian and I will be there…we can bring Earl Grey.
I also have a package of tempeh I haven’t opened yet that I can bring if you would like.

Lena – I’ve got tempeh, but you might bring yours too, just in case we want more.

Hi Courtney, I’ll be there, I’ll try to pick up OJ on the way if I have time.
