Directions
Prepare the cashews: Soak cashews in hot water for 20–30 minutes, then drain.
Prepare the tofu: Slice tofu lengthwise and cut into 4 round patties. Boil in salted water for 5–7 minutes, then drain and pat dry.
Marinate the tofu: Combine soy milk, PRANA tahini, nutritional yeast and spices. Add tofu patties and let marinate while preparing the remaining ingredients, or for up to 1 hour.
Make the chia caviar: Blend roasted seaweed into a fine powder. Mix with PRANA chia seeds and remaining ingredients. Let thicken for 15–30 minutes.
Cook the tofu and spinach: Pan-fry tofu patties in a little oil until golden on both sides. In the same pan, sauté garlic and spinach until wilted.
Prepare the hollandaise sauce: Blend drained cashews, soy cream, hot broth, nutritional yeast, spices and lemon juice until smooth and creamy.
Assemble: Toast English muffins. Layer each half with spinach, vegan ham, tofu egg, hollandaise sauce and chia caviar. Garnish with chives or green onions and serve!
