- Heat oil in a large non-stick pan.
- Add the onion, bell peppers and asparagus, and cook for 5 or so minutes, until soft.
- Add the cumin, ground coriander, salt, pepper, tofu, nutritional yeast and water. Cook for 2-3 more minutes, until water has absorbed into the tofu.
- To assemble the breakfast bowls: Divide the tofu scramble and breakfast sweet potatoes amongst 6-8 containers. Store for up to 4 days in the fridge.
