Super-Quick Scramble

The Chef: Elizabeth

The Menu: Tofu scramble! Today's Italian-food-inspired meal consisted of lots of onions and garlic, tofu, eggplant, capers, fresh basil, and garbanzo beans, and a side salad with heirloom tomatoes and avocado.

The Goods: Sometimes, you only have half an hour to make lunch. Like, oh say, when you're going to press the next day and need to finalize the cover and edits, and maybe also need to get ready for Taking Action for Animals in DC this weekend, and maybe, just maybe, today is also your web deadline. On such days, throw a bunch of themed ingredients (Italian in this case) on tofu and call it a day. Well, actually, first vote in the Veggie Awards Survey—since there are only 10 days of voting left—then call it a day. Whew.
