Recipe: Tofu Scramble
Here at Alaya Holistic Health and in the Rebel Vegan Kitchen, we’re all about simplicity. I am not a recipe person - but I do like to get creative by veganising old classics AND making them nutritious, while sometimes coming up with new ideas! Just because I make it vegan doesn’t mean you have to. My goal is to help you eat MORE whole plants, not to point fingers or cast judgment. Wherever you are on the plant-based spectrum, I hope these recipes inspire you to increase your plant-diversity and improve your overall dietary pattern. Your body and mind, as well as the planet and the animals will love you for it!

The science tells us that consuming over 30 types of unique whole plants in the week - that’s fruits, vegetables (including fresh herbs), wholegrains, legumes, nuts and seeds - provides us with a healthy gut. And with a healthy gut we have a healthy body and mind. Plant-diversity is key to health. Can you do the ALAYA+30 CHALLENGE? Start keeping track of your plants!
