Tofu Scramble Breakfast Sandwich

How can you not love breakfast? Just the thought of it excites me! During the week I keep things pretty simple, but on the weekends I look forward to experimenting and coming up with creative, yet simple breakfast options. Well folks, on this particular Saturday, I wanted to go aaaaalllll out on a mouthwatering, mile-high, amazingly delicious Tofu Scramble Breakfast Sandwich!

What makes this breakfast sandwich so special you ask? It’s got a nice little southwestern flare that you’ll love! I know I did! The tofu scramble is seasoned with my favorite taco seasoning blend, combined with red onions, and red + green peppers. YUUUUMMM.

To set this breakfast sandwich off, I felt it was only right to include the new Meatless Sausage Plant-Based Patty from Alpha Foods. This patty brought this Tofu Scramble Breakfast Sandwich to life! I’m not gonna lie… If I didn’t know any better, I would think that I was eating the real deal! This Meatless Sausage patty is so easy to make. I decided to cook mine on the stove, but if you’re in a hurry you can also toss them in the microwave and it’s ready in about a minute! I’ve tried them both ways and it didn’t disappoint!

The Details:

No breakfast sandwich is complete without a few additions to top it off! For this southwest inspired breakfast sandwich, I used avocado, tomato, cilantro and a slice of vegan cheese. Not only does the vegan cheese add to the flavor of the overall sandwich, it also helps to keep the tofu scramble in place! Start creating your breakfast sandwich with the tofu scramble as the base, then add the vegan cheese. Place it in the microwave for a few seconds so it can melt. At this point your tofu scramble is now stuck to the vegan cheese and will prevent it from falling apart all over your lap! Alternatively, you could wrap this sandwich in foil or parchment paper and peel it back as you devour it! This is the perfect option if you need to take it on the go.

For the bread, I chose to go with a good ol’ fashioned english muffin. I love english muffins, but if they’re not your thing, you could also sub for toasted sliced bread or a bagel. You’re set up to win with whatever you choose!

I know you’ll love this Tofu Scramble Breakfast Sandwich! It’s so easy to make and is stacked with all of your favorite toppings. What’s not to love?! Give it a try and let me know what you think in the comments below!
