Your Keto vegan meal not only has to be filling but very nutritious! Especially when you’re vegan, it’s important to make sure you’re adding ingredients that provide healthy vitamins and minerals to your meal. This is what makes a diet successful at keeping you energized throughout the day until your next meal. This vegan Keto recipe makes a great breakfast, but you can eat it at any time of day. A whole avocado is filled with tofu scrambled “eggs” that are seasoned just right to taste like the real thing. What makes the scrambled tofu so delicious and nutritious is the addition of nutritional yeast. Roasted sunflower seeds and chopped cashews toasted in coconut oil add extra fat and healthy oils you need to your meal. You can make a more filling meal by adding greens, such as arugula or spinach, at your own discretion to the final dish.
### What Is Nutritional Yeast? Is It Keto?
Nutritional yeast is made from the same type of yeast used to make rising bread and brew beer. However, this yeast isn’t alive when you cook with it. Vegans and health-nuts love nutritional yeast because it has a cheesy, nutty flavor. It tastes very similar to cheddar cheese popcorn! Nutritional yeast provides protein, B vitamins, and important trace minerals. Yes, it’s totally Keto!
### Do I Have To Be On A Vegan Diet To Make This Recipe?
This vegan recipe makes a great Keto meal even if you’re not eating vegan meals exclusively. For regular Keto meals, cut the serving size in half. This way, you’re only eating half an avocado filled with tofu, so you’re not having too many carbohydrates.
