I love savory breakfasts, and this recipe makes my taste buds dance. It's warm, it's satisfying, it's comforting, and it's incredibly tasty! I look forward to this meal every single time. Ingredients: 1 recipe scrambled tofu 1 recipe oven potatoes Rice (made anyway you like) 8-10 corn tortillas Instructions: Tortillas - You really can prepare these the way that you prefer them. I like to fry them with either cooking spray or a little bit of margarine so that they're toasty brown on each side. Once everything is prepared, layer rice, potatoes, and scrambled tofu on a tortilla, fold the sides up, and eat like a taco.
