Tofu Rancheros
Feeling southwestern, but not a fan of meat? Then spice up your morning routine with tofu rancheros. Either serve it as a scramble, or add some corn tortillas for some makeshift breakfast tacos — either way, it's a spicy and scrumptious alternative to the classic eggy (and flour-y) breakfast burrito.
