Breakfast Casserole Help

Feb 02, 2010 21:11

I work in a very carnivore/omni office, though there are those who are considerate of my being vegan, and each department hosts breakfast every two weeks (rotating through about eight departments so you don't have to host super frequently). Rarely is there anything I will eat other than fresh fruit. Yay ( Read more... )

I'm looking forward to seeing what people suggest. I've never really thought of a casserole for breakfast. Then again, mornings aren't my brightest moments.

This doesn't fit with the casserole them, but as an idea for a future breakfast, my friend makes a legendary "oatmeal". It's a mixture of grains, including but not limited to oats and kasha, dried fruit and nuts. I don't think she has a standard recipe. She serves with animal-derived milk (easily substituted) and usually demerara sugar or agave nectar.

When people - mostly omnivores - stay over at her place, this is what they want for breakfast. It's truly awesome.

That sounds yummy. :)

The Mushroom and Spinach Strata from Veganomicon is absolutely delicious. Easy too, you can assemble it the night before then throw it in the oven in the morning.

I am thinking non-sweet because their "entries" will likely be egg-based. :-\

La Dolce Vegan has a BLT Brunch Casserole which is really good. Maybe you can tweak it a bit so it doesn't seem so strange to omni's with the substitutes... like the cheese recipe it calls for isn't the greatest.

I have this cookbook, so I will check it out. I just borrowed 30 Minute Vegan from the library, too, so maybe there is something in there. I have roughly two weeks to find a recipe I think will work.

what about a 'casserole' of vegan cinnamon scrolls?

Alas, I think all of the entries will be along the egg lines. I found this one that sounds good. I will have to make a couple this week to see which is best - suffering through breakfast for dinner. How will I survive? ;-)
