For some people, eggs are an everyday staple that could never be replaced, and for good reason! They are versatile, cost-effective, and are used in both savory and sweet dishes. But, if you’re trying to go vegan and cannot get over how to replace your love for eggs, try these substitutions and your transition will be much smoother and still delicious.
Tofu Scramble
If you are craving a simple plate of scrambled eggs for breakfast, turn to tofu instead! The trick to making this dish really believable is by draining the tofu before you cook it, which on requires a paper towel, a heavy pot and 15 minutes. Once it’s drained, crumble it into scramble-like pieces, saute with veggies, and you’re ready for your day.

Flax Egg
If you’re baking, eggs are an inescapable ingredient for its binding abilities. Luckily, an easy replacement is ground up flaxseeds and water! This combination creates a gooey consistency that actually works like an egg. Give it a try and see for yourself!

Mashed Potato
If you have a savory recipe that calls for an egg, you can use mashed potatoes in its place! For every egg use 1/4 cup of mashed potatoes, and you’ll never know the difference.
