Sun-kissed blueberries, silky tofu, and fragrant edible lavender team up to make a bowl of flavorful nutrition to breathe new life into your breakfast routine. You can even add a few spoonfuls of muesli to the topping for a more substantial meal. The pudding also works as a healthy dessert or even a post-workout recovery snack. Culinary lavender is typically cultivated from Lavandula angustifolia plants and has a lot less oil than the aromatic lavender used in perfumes or soaps, which you should not use in recipes.
Soft tofu explained
Silken (soft) tofu is made when soymilk is coagulated without curdling the milk, and the tofu is left unpressed so it retains high amounts of moisture and has a “silky” texture. Blend silken/soft tofu into smoothies, puddings, and creamy salad dressings such as vegan Caesar or ranch.
