TOFU DELICATES
Scrambled Tofu with Shiitake Mushrooms
May 16th, 2015
I was very lucky getting good deals on Shiitake mushrooms in the last couple of weeks, so I made another recipe. Of course there is nothing new about scrambled tofu, but I just added my little twist to it. Scrambled eggs with fresh picked mushrooms was one of the meals we used to make back home in Slovakia and is very common in Canada as well. Yet, I have to say, it was never my favorite and thinking about eggs today makes it even less desirable. On the other hand scrambled tofu is one of my favorite things to eat and making it with Shiitake mushrooms makes it even more pleasing. Likewise, the scrambled tofu is truly versatile; you can always add more veggies for example, to it or just have them on the side, grilled, steamed or fresh. I love to eat it with my Guru Salad (kale) and whole grain organic bread or roast potatoes. Really, there're many choices you can experiment with, so be creative. Inventiveness and creativity is what I love about vegan lifestyle the most. The possibilities of creating new plant based meals good for your body, mind and soul, the animals and the planet are endless.
