Slow Cooker Vegan Breakfast Casserole

I tweaked my cheesy vegan breakfast potato casserole for this easy slow cooker version, and surprised myself with the results. 🙂 I also loved that it took me just 20 minutes to put it all together the night before and I didn’t have to lift a finger to get a hot breakfast on the table the next morning! This slow cooker casserole is loaded with bits of potato and vegan sausage in a creamy, savory, herby tofu sauce that thickens up nicely during cooking, and sets just like eggs would. Casseroles, like vegan tater tot casserole and vegan hash brown casserole, are a great option for breakfast and they are also kid-friendly. You can put this vegan slow cooker casserole in the same category: the potato and sausage make it so tasty and the sausage, along with the tofu, also adds a lot of protein so you - and the kids - are powered up for the rest of the day!

Easy, delicious slow cooker vegan breakfast casserole

The recipe takes no more than 20 minutes to pull together - you just have to dump everything into the slow cooker. No doubt you will get even faster with the prep the more often you do it. You can also make things a bit easier on yourself by using store-bought hash browns instead of grating potatoes, which takes up the lion’s share of those 20 minutes. This is also a nourishing and satisfying dish, but it has only 355 calories and a whopping 23 grams of protein in each serving.
