Southwest Tofu Scramble

 I was at The Flying Biscuit a few months ago, and I ordered the tofu scramble. It was my first time eating tofu scramble, and it was absolutely delicious. I even wrote a review about it. I have wanted to try to make it myself for a while, but I have never worked with tofu before. I was trying to decide what to make for breakfast on Christmas morning, and I finally decided that I would try to make the tofu scramble. I am so glad I did! It was a hit. I look forward to making different versions of this tasty recipe.

This recipe is not at all difficult. Once you sauté your fresh vegetables and add in your tofu, you are well on your way to a savory, wholesome meal that takes only ten ingredients to make!

Filling, veggie-filled, fresh, protein-packed, and only takes ten ingredients to make!
