Beans, beans, the magical fruit…

Filed under: Follow Your Heart — FoodEater @ 9:20 pm

Here’s a great stick-to-your-ribs breakfast I recently tried for the first time at Follow Your Heart, the “Two Bean Hash”.

Vegan Breakfast at Follow Your Heart

“White and Black Beans, Vegetables, Wheatmeat and Spices, Pan Fried Crispy. Served with Two Vegetarian “Sausage” Links, Guacamole and Sour Cream.”

This was delicious, a simple and straightforward combo of flavors and textures that all went very well together. Mixing in the guacamole, salsa and sour cream gave the dish a nice Mexican flair. If Emeril Lagasse were here he’d probably say that they kicked it up a notch. The sour cream was vegan but make sure your server knows that’s what you want just in case.

I didn’t like the sausages much at all; they tasted like your average fake-sausage from the freezer, and not of an amazingly realistic or particularly tasty variety. Spiced, smoked cardboard comes to mind. Nevertheless, the hash was lovely and I highly recommend it. Next time I’ll ask for a side of fruit or something instead of the snausages.

  2. ooh, ‘wheatmeat and spices’ sounds way more appetizing than seitan. the whole thing looks like a jumble of yum!

  3. Liz²: “Jumble of Yum” is exactly how I would describe it!

  4. Now that looks delicious!

    I just saw your review of Shojin referenced in LaIst and it reminded me to try that place too. So many restaurants, so little time (and money).

  5. i love the two bean hash. generally i order a side of it to go with my eggless omelet that i get stuffed with vegan cheese, ham, spinach and mushrooms!
    and i agree the sausage links are pretty gross.

    this weekend i had a delicious pear and granola muffin from M Cafe for breakfast.

  6. Lane: I’m acutally kinda glad that money keeps me from eating at all the places I’d like to… if it wasn’t for that barrier I’d probably be eating out every day, breakfast, lunch and dinner!

  9. Yay! A vegan from LA!! Now I can get good restaurant reviews, hehe. I love FYH, but I have to say I’ve never had their brunch/breakfast: I’m a zorro burrito or tofu tacos kinda gal, but I have to say that hash looks delicious!
