Southwestern Tofu Scramble

Southwestern Tofu Scramble

One of the biggest surprises of living a vegan life is my new found love of tofu.  Scrambled, baked, fried, mashed, marinated… the list of ways I have enjoyed tofu are endless.  In this delicious vegan brunch recipe, we mix loads of veggies and spices with tofu to create a perfectly married vegan Southwestern Tofu Scramble served with some SERIOUS EATS “Best Roasted Potatoes Ever” (with an oil-free VegInspired twist – we basically cooked them on a parchment lined sheet pan and omitted the oil).  Let’s not delay your breakfast, or you’ll have to call it brunch! (hahaha)

We hope this inspires you to add some veggies and tofu to your breakfast (brunch, lunch, or even dinner) meals.  This recipe was incredible, but you can always change up the veggies to use what you have on hand.  Happy Brunching!
