Start your day the right way with this nutritious breakfast using tofu. I have to say though that it wouldn’t be my choice for breakfast. I prefer something a bit gentler on the taste buds first thing in the morning - like fruit or porridge. I use this easy tofu recipe for brunch, lunch or for a tasty supper.

Ingredients:

3 cups egg whites
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 cup diced onions
2 tablespoons chopped roasted green chili
6 tablespoons chopped fresh chives
1/2 pound soft tofu
1 teaspoon turmeric
1 fresh tomato, peeled, seeded and diced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/8 teaspoon ground cumin

Instructions:

Beat the egg whites in a small bowl until they have broken up and started to foam.
Add finely crumbled tofu to the egg whites and mix.
Add in the soy sauce, pepper and turmeric. Set the mixture aside.
Over a medium heat, combine the tomato, onion, cumin, garlic, and green chili in a large frying pan and cook until the onions are see-through and all liquid has evaporated.
Add the tofu mixture to the skillet and stir well.
Scramble the complete mixture until the egg whites have been cooked completely.
Once scrambled sprinkle with chives and serve.

Try this recipe and decide which time of the day you prefer to eat it.
