One of the things I missed the most when becoming vegan was eggs. I was actually quite surprised by this because I didn’t eat eggs regularly, but I found myself craving them for a long time after I gave them up (that was actually the first thing I gave up when I decided to become vegan!).

I am happy to say that I have created a version of fried eggs that is totally vegan and delicious, and it actually satisfied any craving I had for the texture (and taste!) of eggs. Hint: nutritional yeast, turmeric and black salt do the trick!

I think my biggest surprise was that my son loves this dish! He usually pairs it with rice rather than eating it as a sandwich.

If you’ve never heard of black salt, it’s actually called kala namak, and in my opinion is the spice that gives this dish the egg taste.

You can create your own concoction of spices with these ingredients but my secret weapon is using the Tofu Scramble Spice Mix from FreshJax. It’s so easy and you can make this in no time!

Ingredients

• 1 block extra firm tofu (always organic or non-GMO verified), drained and cut into 6 rectangles
• 1 TBSP water

OR to make your own spice blend:

• 2 TBSP nutritional yeast
• 1/4 TSP turmeric
•  1/2 TSP onion powder

• 1/4 TSP paprika (smoked paprika works well too!)
• 1 TSP kala namak (black salt)
• Fresh pepper to taste
