I came across a recipe for tofu scramble and thought I would try it
out. I didn't follow the recipe to a T, mainly because I don't have
nutritional yeast or black sea salt. Soooooo...instead I used flour and
regular salt and pepper.
The original pin requires mixing:
1/2 cup warm water
2 teaspoons nutritional yeast
1/4 teaspoon turmeric
1/8 teaspoon black sea salt
Instead I used
1/2 cup warm water
2 teaspoons flour
1/4 teaspoon turmeric
pinch of salt and pepper
The
flour is needed to thicken the water so its more of a sauce to coat the
tofu. Just break up the tofu up into little pieces and heat in a
skillet. Mix the ingredients from above and pour over the tofu while
still heating. You can add other seasonings like garlic and other things
you would normally put on your eggs. Once the "sauce" is absorbed, the
tofu scramble should be done.
Now the pin says to serve
over squash, which sounds devine, but I didn't have squash, so I sliced
up potatoes. I also made regular scrambled eggs to compare. I served
with cheese on top and with ketchup.
I was surprised,
even though the tofu scramble doesn't taste quite like eggs, I still
enjoyed it way more than the eggs. Comparing them to each other, the
eggs just seemed rubbery compared to the soft tofu texture. And no, I
didn't over cook the eggs. Although, if you don't like tofu, you should
still to your eggs.

This morning I was looking for a nice and easy pin for Sunday morning breakfast. Luckily when I went on pinterest, it was the very first pin on the page! I had made something like this many many years ago in a 7th grade home ec rotation and I hadn't made it since, even tho I rather enjoyed it. So since Husband was on his way home I had him grab a few things, most items tho can be found in your kitchen already. But here is the original pin. It only needs to cook for 20 minutes in the oven.
My directions are going to be rather vague since the post shows it step by step. Just need eggs, milk, flour, sugar, salt, butter, and powdered sugar if
you fancy it.
I used soymilk because I don't like cows milk...the smell
just gets to me. It turned out the same in my opinion.
So first you preheat the oven, then mix everything but the butter and powder sugar..the butter
is used in the pan to keep it from sticking...although, we had a bit of
sticking.

Its cool to watch the batter rise, once it leave the over and starts to cool, it will flatten though.
I served it with blueberries, strawberries and bananas. Oh, and a little extra powdered sugar!
I think it turned out very yummy. It does have a thick eggy texture. Its pretty weird, but pretty yummy.The edges remind me of french toast. Overall, great recipe and very easy!
