Switch up your breakfast for a Healthy Tofu Scramble!
Since I’ve been on this kick to eat more plant based meals and snacks, I decided to incorporate this into the kids meals as well. When I started this plan, I thought it was going to be difficult, but it actually became very eye opening and educational. There’s a whole other world out there of ingredients, seasonings, and preparation. The Tofu Scramble is my personal favorite. I threw this together in place of eggs, and it’s a hit in my house. It’s so flavorful, and this can actually be made for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.

Healthy Tofu Scrambles
The soy chorizo is really delicious, and SPICY. I use about 1/3 of the serving size just for flavor, and to reduce the spiciness and sodium. I created this dish, because I wanted just a plant based meal with no animal products in it. If you’re not into this recipe with the tofu, definitely try it with eggs and a different type of chorizo.

- Once oil is hot, add the bell peppers, for 3-4 minutes, bell peppers will start to soften. Then add the onions for an additional 2 minutes.
