Tofu Scramble and Roasted Potatoes

Absolutely love a good veggie and tofu scramble! I enjoy making this on the weekend for brunch. There are also endless options to a tofu scramble. Feel free to explore with different variations of vegetables. You can mix it up by switching out the vegetables and even the spices. Another option I love is spinach, mushroom and caramelized onion.
