Tofu Veggie Scramble Tacos

These tacos are nourishing, easy and quick to make as well as meal prep friendly. I am huge on meal prep as a way to save time during the week and to help you extend your healthy eating into the next day. This recipe makes about 3 tacos, however I recommend making double to enjoy for 2-3 days.

This recipe can honestly be enjoyed any time of the day. I would enjoy these if I was craving a savory breakfast or if i wanted a quick dinner idea.

I also used tofu for my protein option, however eggs or black beans would substitute just fine!
