The Essential Scramble Seasoning
Before we jump into the individual recipes, let’s talk about flavor. A great scramble needs the right seasoning to bring it to life. Here's our go-to scramble seasoning — use it in any of the recipes below!

Scramble Seasoning Blend:
1 Tbsp Kala Namak (Indian Black Salt)
2 Tbsp Nutritional Yeast
1 Tsp Ground Turmeric
½ Tsp Onion Powder
½ Tsp Smoked Paprika
Mix everything together and store in an airtight jar. This blend adds that savory, “eggy” flavor and golden color that makes a plant-based scramble pop!
1. Pumpkin Seed Scramble

Ingredients:
½ cup raw pumpkin seeds (soaked at least 1 hour)
1 cup water
2 tsp scramble seasoning
Instructions:
Blend soaked pumpkin seeds with water and seasoning until smooth. Pour into a pan and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until a firm scramble texture forms.
Why We Love It:
Rich in protein, fiber, and healthy fats
Nutty flavor and great texture
Shelf-stable seeds make it great for meal prep
Soy-free!
💡 Tip: Make a larger batch and store in the fridge for 2–3 days of ready-to-cook breakfast!
2. Mung Bean Scramble

Ingredients:
½ cup yellow mung beans (soaked at least 1 hour)
¾ cup water
3 tsp scramble seasoning
Instructions:
Blend soaked beans with water and seasoning until smooth. Pour into a heated pan and spread like a thin pancake. Let it cook briefly, then gently scramble and cover until cooked through.
Why We Love It:
High in fiber and protein
Low in fat
Soy-free and shelf-stable
Delicious, creamy texture with just a little technique
⚠️ Don’t over-stir once it sets — it can get gummy!
3. Soybean Tofu Scramble

Ingredients:
½ block firm tofu
1½ tsp scramble seasoning
Instructions:
Crumble tofu directly into a heated pan, sprinkle with seasoning, and sauté until warm and lightly golden.
Why We Love It:
Super easy and quick
Affordable and widely available
High in protein and fiber
Familiar and comforting texture
❗ Contains soy, so skip this one if you're avoiding it.
4. Fava Bean Tofu Scramble

Ingredients:
½ block firm fava bean tofu
1½ tsp scramble seasoning
Instructions:
Same method as soy tofu — crumble, season, and cook!
Why We Love It:
Soy-free alternative with a firmer texture
Very high in protein, low in fat and calories
Great for those avoiding common allergens
💲 It’s a bit pricier and harder to find — check specialty or health food stores.
5. Just Egg Scramble

Ingredients:
½ carton of Just Egg
Scramble seasoning to taste
Instructions:
Pour into a heated pan and cook just like traditional eggs. That’s it!
Why We Love It:
Most convenient option
Great texture and taste
High in protein and low in fat
⚠️ It’s the most processed and priciest option, but super easy for busy mornings.
