Tips and Tricks

Here are a few more helpful hints that will come in handy when making your vegan scramble:

Some veggies like zucchini, mushrooms, and spinach release water while cooking, make sure to sauté them until the moisture evaporates.
Depending on which eggs and mix ins you use, you may or may not need the salt and pepper.
Dairy free cheese tends to take longer to melt so if you sprinkle it over the cooked veggies it will melt better.
Prep ahead of time by chopping up the veggies and storing them in the refrigerator in an airtight container until ready to cook. You can even pre-cook the veggies and simply add them to the eggs.
