The Ultimate Vegan Tofu Scramble
As an outspoken breakfast lover, I always struggle between choosing something sweet or savory. And while I would never pass up a piping hot cinnamon roll, sometimes I'm craving something more substantial like eggs. The only problem is I’ve never really been an egg person. Many brunch spots have started to add tofu scrambles to their menus to accommodate more diners because the texture of firm tofu is surprisingly similar to that of scrambled eggs.
The best part is that the scramble is totally customizable. Feeling Southwestern? Amp up the cumin and add black beans, salsa, cheese, and some sliced avocado on top.
And because tofu is high in protein, you’ll feel full and satisfied all morning. This is the perfect breakfast for the egg-haters, the vegans, or anyone craving a traditional American breakfast scramble. Make a big batch and enjoy it throughout the week, or treat your friends to a weekend feast.
