Notes
Egg Replacements for Vegans and Vegetarians:
- Tofu Scramble: Firm tofu makes an excellent base for a hearty scramble. Crumble it and cook with vegetables like spinach, bell peppers, onions, and mushrooms. Season with turmeric (for a golden hue), nutritional yeast (for a cheesy flavor), and a touch of salt and pepper. Sauté until it reaches your desired consistency.
- Vegan Egg Substitute: Store-bought vegan egg replacements, such as Just Egg, are made from mung beans and mimic the flavor and texture of traditional scrambled eggs. These can be prepared just like regular eggs for an easy and satisfying swap.
For added flavor, mix in 1 tbsp of feta cheese (optional for vegetarians).
Substitute fresh herbs, such as dill or basil, for parsley to customize your dish.
