Vegan Breakfast Tacos

Get a taste of the Southwest with these egg-free vegan breakfast tacos!

Breakfast Tacos

When I’m wanting a savory breakfast, the first thing I crave is breakfast tacos! The only problem is – it’s hard to find local tacos without eggs, meat and dairy.

So we decided to make a plant-based version of a Southwest favorite!

Instead of using eggs (which are high in cholesterol) we’ve used scrambled tofu – a great source of high-quality plant-based protein. The tofu gives these tacos a perfect, crumbly texture! And the addition of mushrooms, spinach and peppers take these tacos from so-so to delicioso!

Unlike traditional breakfast tacos, these have the added nutrition of superfoods from our Mellow Yellow mix. This mix contains natural anti-inflammatories including turmeric, which gives this scramble its yellow color. You also get the benefits of ashwagandha, a powerful adaptogen that can reduce stress and anxiety.

Eat tacos and improve your health? That’s a no-brainer!

The best part about tacos is they’re completely customizable. Add avocado slices, your favorite salsa, cilantro – or anything else your heart desires!

Keep calm and (tofu) scramble on!
