Bianca's Cheeze "Eggs"

I tried something new last night! I made Bianca's tofu scramble. She calls it "Bianca's Cheeze "Eggs", and it was/is fantastic! My first experience with tofu scramble was a disaster! It was not a very pleasant experience at all. Of course, I didn't use a recipe, and I was a brand new vegan. I'm sure that's the reason for the nastiness. The second time was better, but nothing that I really wanted to make again. All that is in the past now, and I think that I am in love with Bianca's tofu scramble...it is the best! You can get her recipe here. In her recipe, she calls for a cup of chopped vegetables. I used spinach, broccoli, and some yellow bell peppers. I think I may have ended up with a little more than a cup of vegetables, but it turned out perfect.
BTW, if your not familiar with Bianca over at VeganCrunk, you need to check out her blog at http://vegancrunk.blogspot.com/.

So, for dinner last night I had tofu scramble (Cheeze "Eggs"), corn, brown rice and black beans.



I liked the tofu scramble so much that I decided to bring leftovers for lunch today. I made some mini wraps by cutting some "flatout" into 3 pieces and wrapping the scrambled tofu up inside it. I didn't add anything else to my wrap, as I didn't want to ruin the deliciousness of the Cheeze "Eggs"! :-) We have a cafeteria at work, but I rarely go in there because it is NOT vegan friendly. I took a chance today and went for a quick look at the buffet, and too my surprise they had some seasoned fries. So, lunch was a success today as well as dinner last night.

~Peace~

    Glad you found a scramble recipe you like. I checked out Vegan Crunk's recipe; it does sound really good.

    My work cafeteria is vegan UN-friendly too...I never eat anything there. They usually have a few vegetarian options, but they are always smothered in cheese.

    Mmm, Cheeze Eggs sound great! My 1st tofu scramble was awful too.

    My first tofu scramble was awful too, like most of my early vegan food. I think it is just a learning process.

    Glad you found a recipe you like that you can play around with now and make your own.

    I always use Fantastic World Foods box mix for my Tofu Scramble. Good for you for doing it the old fashioned way.

    The veggies in the scramble sound delicious and look great - I'm glad this made good leftovers for work! I even like tofu scramble cold.

    Haha - my first experience was terrible, too. It was long before I was vegan (or even vegetarian), and I hated it! Hard to believe now because I love tofu so much! :)

    Bianca's cheezy "eggs" look fantastic! Nice work!

    The brand of wraps "Flatout" are not vegan. Found that out recently and thought I'd pass it along. I was also wondering on a post awhile back you said something about morningstar products and I was just wondering which ones you found that were vegan because I have not seen any.

    I'm so glad that you found a breakfast recipe that you like. It sounds delicious!

    I know you mentioned that there are a bunch of kitchen things that you'd like; do you have an amazon wishlist? You can e-mail me if you'd rather respond that way.
