The Tofu Scramble That’ll Make You Forget Eggs (Really)

When it comes to breakfast, I need two things: fast and satisfying. Enter this tofu scramble. It’s everything you love about a classic scramble—fluffy, savory, and endlessly versatile—but with a plant-based twist. Whether you’re a seasoned tofu lover or just tofu-curious, this recipe is a game-changer.

Before we dive into the details, let’s set the scene. Imagine: It’s a cozy weekend morning. You’ve got your favorite mug of coffee in hand, and something warm and hearty is sizzling on the stovetop. The aroma of savory spices and melting plant-based cheese wafts through the air. That’s this tofu scramble. It’s easy, delicious, and packed with Good Gravy’s signature flavors.

What You’ll Love About This Recipe

  1. Ready in 10 Minutes: Perfect for busy mornings or whenever hunger strikes.
  2. Customizable: Keep it simple or add your favorite veggies, herbs, or toppings.
  3. Packed with Protein: Thanks to tofu, this dish powers you through the day.
  4. Seriously Delicious: Thanks to Good Gravy Scramble Mix, every bite is flavorful and satisfying.

Ingredients You’ll Need

  • Good Gravy Scramble Mix: Your secret weapon for that perfectly seasoned, egg-like flavor.
  • Tofu: A block of firm or extra-firm tofu works best for a hearty, eggy texture.
  • Plant-Based Cheese (optional but highly recommended): A little bit of cheesy goodness takes this to the next level. Violife is a favorite, but use what you love.
  • Water: Helps the scramble mix evenly coat every delicious crumble.

Optional Add-Ins:

  • Cherry Tomatoes: Sweet, juicy, and perfect as a topping.
  • Fresh Herbs: Parsley, cilantro, or chives add a bright, fresh finish.
  • Spinach: Stir in a handful for extra greens and nutrients.

Let’s Make Tofu Scramble!

  1. Prep the Tofu: Drain your tofu to get rid of excess water. Crumble it into a frying pan over low heat, breaking it up into bite-sized pieces.
  2. Add the Good Stuff: Stir in your Good Gravy Scramble Mix and water. Watch as the tofu turns golden and fragrant—it’s already smelling amazing!
  3. Cheese, Please: If you’re using plant-based cheese, this is your moment. Stir it in until it’s melted and gooey.
  4. Optional Add-Ins: Feeling fancy? Toss in a handful of spinach or sprinkle fresh herbs on top for some color and flair.
  5. Cook and Serve: Let everything cook for 3-5 minutes, or until the water evaporates. Serve hot on toast, in a tortilla, or as-is.

Tips for the Best Tofu Scramble

  1. Craving More Flavor? Add a pinch of nutritional yeast or a splash of soy sauce for extra umami.
  2. Texture is Key: Don’t overcook! You want your tofu soft and fluffy, not dry.
  3. Make It Your Own: This recipe is a blank canvas. Add veggies, spices, or even a splash of plant-based milk for creaminess.
