Tofu Scramble - Vegan breakfast








Are you vegan? Or you cannot eat eggs? Or maybe you simply don’t like the taste of eggs? Well, I have a delicious proposition for you! Mornings can be hard and there is nothing that wakes you up better than a large, fulfilling yet healthy breakfast. 


In today’s post I would like to present you Tofu Scramble, an alternative to regular, often boring and known for years scrambled eggs. To be honest it took me a while to try this idea out, sometimes tofu can be tasteless but if you will prepare it well it’s really luscious. My biggest tip is to drain as much water from it as possible. If you have time leave it for half an hour wrapped up in paper towel (obviously it is not necessary but in my opinion it brings out a better taste). 





A great advantage to the meal is that you can adjust it to fit your preferences. I reckon this post will just give you inspiration as you may add anything you want! This particular one was prepared with tomatoes and onions but I am looking forward to try tofu scramble with kale or spinach. Really, add whatever you like and you shall not regret.


Ingredients

  • (Smoked) tofu
  • 2 tomatoes
  • half an onion
  • olive oil, salt, pepper, chili pepper

Procedure

1. Dice the onion and peal the tomatoes. On a warm pan with olive oil add onion and glaze it.
2. When the onion turns golden, add diced tomatoes and simmer them until they will lose their shape.
3. Scramble tofu into a bowl and add seasoning to taste, I also added a little bit of lemon juice for a more vibrate taste.
4. Add tofu to the pan and cook for 5-6 minutes.
5. Tofu scramble is ready! No need for eggs any more :)
