How are you? So, today’s recipe is one of those that I make quite often! Probably every week. I’m a sucker for scrambled tofu and I can have it every single day! My recipe is an absolut favorite! Creamy, hearty, filling and sooo good! The secret to this recipe is the cashew cream which adds to the tofu the fatty texture it needs to be perfect! Most scrabled tofu recipes are usually a bit dry for me but with the addition of the cream it gets just the way I like it! The cherry tomatoes add a nice little garicky touch to it which you will love and the spinach (though it can be omitted) is the perfect match to scrambled tofu! I know I get a bit excited over this recipe but hey… I love it! Give it a go and let me know in the comments what you think!
