Ingredients
  

  • 3 pieces of tofu
  • 6 eggs
  • 2 stalks of green onions sliced
  • 1 sausage your choice of type
  • 1 carrot grated

Method
 

  1. Prepare the Ingredients: Drain the tofu and cut it into bite-sized cubes. Set aside. Grate the carrot and slice the green onions thinly.
  2. Cook the Sausage: In a large skillet, cook the sausage over medium heat, breaking it into small crumbles as it cooks until fully browned and cooked through.
  3. Scramble the Eggs: In a bowl, beat the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper. Pour the eggs into the skillet with the sausage, scrambling them until they are just set.
  4. Add Tofu and Vegetables: Gently fold in the tofu cubes, grated carrot, and sliced green onions into the egg mixture. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally until everything is heated through.
  5. Serve and Enjoy: Serve immediately, either on its own or with a side of rice, toast, or any other breakfast sides you prefer.

Notes

  • Customizations: Feel free to add other vegetables like bell peppers, spinach, or mushrooms. You can also switch out the sausage for turkey sausage, bacon, or a plant-based sausage for a different flavor.
  • Storage: Leftovers can be stored in the fridge for up to 2 days. Reheat in a skillet or microwave before serving.
  • Vegan Option: Substitute eggs with a plant-based scramble or simply add more tofu for extra protein.
  • Spicy Version: Add chili flakes or fresh chopped jalapeños for a spicy twist.
