To everyone who remembers their first sip of soy milk, or perhaps their first spoonful of plant-based ice cream or veggie burger, it’s more than likely you’ve noticed the astounding amount of invention there has been in meat and dairy alternatives. To say the substitute food game has made leaps and bounds is an understatement. Vegan pizzas have won awards over their dairy-using competition. Meat replacements have become so tasty, plant-based protein manufacturers claim they could replace meat altogether.
But as any substitution junkie will tell you, replacing the Egg has lagged somewhat behind the competition. The egg has different consistences and flavors depending on how it’s cooked. Such versatility has proven difficult to mimic, and we’re just now (pun intended) seeing egg replacements on the open market.
One video blogger, Ellie Bullen, has set the internet ablaze with her own delicious recipe for fried egg. Her short, ten-minute-tutorial has accrued over 350,000 views on Youtube, bolstered by comments, blogs, and cooking websites who rate the recipe so highly for it’s savory breakfast taste, ease, and visual resemblance to the real thing.
The result of the highly plant-based recipe looks so lifelike you might make a vegan think twice before taking a bite. We love how easy Ms. Bullen makes it with her positive attitude and student-friendly directions!
