Back with another 10-minute dinner, let’s make Tofu and Eggs. Tofu and Eggs is one of the most underrated combos. The silky tofu paired with rich, fluffy eggs is perfect on top of a bowl of hot rice. Tofu and Eggs is an easy and delicious meal that has been one of my go-to dinners this month, and I promise when you try it, you will love it too! I use dashi powder in this recipe, but if you are vegetarian, you can swap with vegetarian dashi powder that uses seaweed and shiitake mushrooms instead!
