One of the most famous vegan classic meal is without a doubt the tofu scramble. As such, this recipe is so versatile that probably hardly anyone needs a recipe for it.
At the Lovlie Coccoon, we very much enjoy tofu scramble for breakfast with slices of homemade bread, lunch in a wrap as well as dinner over sphagetti ! May I even dare think, scrambled tofu is what keeps veganism alive?!
How you want to enjoy your tofu scramble is up to your imagination and really the sky is the limit! How about with some crunchy taco shells?
Taco shells indeed is a fun and tasty way of enjoying scrambled tofu and would even work when inviting friends over.
Tofu scramble is infinitely flexible in terms of vegetable ingredients. So, this is probably more of a guide than it would be a recipe. I’ve tossed in some home-sprouted mung bean sprouts for added crunch and nutrients.
