One thing people struggle with when eating plant-based is coming up with a quick and easy weekend brunch alternative. This Rise & Shine Tofu Scramble is the perfect vegan breakfast option that egg-lovers will still enjoy. It’s far from boring and the perfect way to start your morning.

We love to make it for a nice, quiet, Sunday breakfast, but it’s a great meal if you have house guests and are cooking for a lot of people too. It’s also great if you’re at the end of the week and have a bunch of vegetables that need to get eaten. Although we list to include Zucchini, Red Bell Pepper, Red Onion, and Mushrooms in this Tofu Scramble, you can use whatever you need to get rid of. Get crazy and add black beans, avocado, tomatoes, whatever you have!

Try pairing this Tofu Scramble with our Breakfast Potatoes – your mouth will thank you! We also use this egg recipe in our Vegan Breakfast Skillet, which is a combination of two of our favourite recipes, check it out!
