Plant-Based Scrambled Egg
Tofu scramble has become a full-blown vegan classic and we, humbly, believe we might have nailed the perfect plant based breakfast recipe. A big claim, but try them for yourself and you'll see what we're on about. This recipe uses the "two tofu technique" which creates the single most egg-y texture that we've ever experienced as vegans. If you can get hold of black salt, then do it. It'll take the eggy-ness to the next level. So there we have it, a delightful egg free breakfast to tickle your tastebuds.
