Tofu Scramble
The easiest and probably one of the greatest breakfast meals. An essential recipe for any vegan! One of the things that helped our guest food blogger Grace recover from being sick was to know the different health benefits of each food. She has been kind enough to share her research with us. So.. Here is a little bit about tofu: - Tofu is made from fermented soy beans and is a wonderful addition to a vegan diet as it is high in protein, calcium, iron, magnesium and zinc AND contains all 8 essential amino acids. - Tofu contains folate which is a bone strengthening B vitamin! - Tofu is low in calories and contains NO cholesterol which may LOWER the risk of heart disease!!!
