Miso scrambled eggs with tofu, corn and peas

One of my go to breakfasts or lunches when I want to add more plant based protein in my diet: scrambled eggs with a delicious Asian twist. It's super easy to make, ready in no time.
Scrambled tofu adds extra protein and fiber to your eggs to support your muscles and gut health. You can adapt the recipe to your own taste by adding other vegetables that you like. However, I strongly recommend trying it with corn and green peas because they add a bit of sweetness to it, which combines nicely with the saltiness and umami-taste of the miso and soy sauce.
This meal can be enjoyed as breakfast, lunch, or even as dinner. If you want to make it more filling, you could add bread, noodles, rice, whatever you like 🙂
