Oats Breakfast Scramble

I was looking for a soy-free alternative to my favourite breakfast, tofu scramble, something which was just as filling and also yummy. Although I occasionally enjoy a bowl of hot breakfast cereal, generally, I’m not a big fan of sweet breakfasts, preferring something hearty and savoury to get me going. So, I thought, why not simply replace the tofu in my breakfast scramble with steel cut oats, a very nutritious grain. And, it worked!

Tofu Breakfast Scramble

One of my favourite hearty breakfasts! I need something substantial in the morning, more than coffee and carbs. This is a very flexible recipe. Start with the basic ingredients, I like Soyarie tofu (made with organic non-GMO, Canadian grown soybeans), then add to it according to what you have on hand (pictured above with spinach). I really like the texture of chickpeas, celery and sweet peppers; a nice balance with the soft tofu.
