Recipe Introduction
As an alternative to scrambled eggs, this recipe can steal the show at brunch. If
you'd like, add other vegetables (up to 2 cups total), such as shredded carrots,
chopped red bell pepper, or sliced zucchini. In addition to the tofu, you can also
add 1 or 2 eggs: Scramble the egg first until no visible liquid remains, remove
it from the pan, and stir it in after the tofu mixture is cooked.
