Vegan Breakfast Scramble

I love starting my morning with a tofu scramble. I typically make it with tofu and a few seasonings then use it as a topping for avocado sourdough toast. It’s all I ever want to start my day. However, on days when I want a bit of variety, I add breakfast potatoes. Well-seasoned, crispy, and flavorful, these potatoes are a great addition to the classic scramble. It’s delicious on its own but it would also be a great filling for breakfast tacos or burritos. Enjoy this scramble for your next plant-based breakfast!

Ingredients

Serves 2

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Cook Time: 15-20 minutes

  • ½ lb baby potatoes

  • 1 T olive oil

  • 1 T vegan butter

  • ¼ t paprika

  • ¼ t chili powder

  • ¼ garlic powder

  • ½ t black pepper

  • ½ t salt

  • ½ red onion

  • ½ red pepper

  • ½ block tofu, firm or soft both work

  • ¼ t turmeric

  • ¼ t chili powder

  • ¼ t salt

  • ¼ t pepper

Directions

  1. Drain and press the tofu. Use a fork to mash.

  2. Rough dice potatoes, onion, and pepper. 

  3. Heat oil and butter in a pan over medium-high heat. Add potatoes. Cook for 12-14 minutes, flipping occasionally to each edge. Season and stir to incorporate. Move to one side of the pan as they continue to crisp up. 

  4. Add a drizzle of oil to the empty side and sauté red onion and pepper for about 2-3 minutes. Add tofu and season. Sitr to combine and let tofu cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. 

  5. Once the tofu and veggies are done, stir in the potatoes to finish off the scramble. 

  6. Serve as a filling in breakfast tacos, over avocado toast, or by itself. I topped mine with avocado slices, pickled red onions, and hot sauce.
