the best wrap I ever tasted!! 🌯


Tina H - Feb. 5, 2024, 9:22 p.m.

Yum! Another winner! I made two wraps and saved the leftover filling for the next morning.


Vonnie - Aug. 23, 2023, 1:28 a.m.

Made my first one today.
The tofu scramble was delicious and renewed my interest in cooking with tofu. It also reminded me of a tofu scramble I used to get at the Whole Food's breakfast bar in Cincinnati, Ohio. So good! I LOVE sweet potatoes and had been looking for a breakfast recipe that worked with them and this one was excellent. AND if that wasn't enough the fresh avocado just set it off.

I refrigerated the extra bits, and when my hubby came home from work, he checked out the tofu scramble and was so impressed. He can't wait to make his own wrap with breakfast potatoes. Thanks to him and his interest in Indian cookery, we had most of the spices on hand.

This will become a 'go-to' recipe!

PUL Team - Aug. 25, 2023, 7:47 a.m.

Oh, Vonnie, you're much too kind! We're so thrilled the breakfast was enjoyed. Happy cooking 🤗


Hanna - July 25, 2023, 7:25 p.m.

Not my Favoriten wrap


Hayley Bowman - July 23, 2023, 9:18 a.m.

I didn’t peel the sweet potatoes and it was a nice added texture as well as goodness. Definitely add the hot sauce!!!

These wraps would be good pre-made to take on a hike

PUL Team - July 25, 2023, 6:17 a.m.

So glad it was enjoyed, Hayley, thank you 🤗


Mariam Wriglesworth - June 30, 2023, 3:08 a.m.

love it


Agathe - June 22, 2023, 1:59 p.m.

Hey PUL ! I made these for lunch today. I don't have regular firm tofu on hand, so I got smoked tofu instead. I was a little scared because I didn't know if it would taste good. but in the end everyone liked it.
it changes from the regular wraps we used to eat.

PUL Team - June 22, 2023, 8:34 p.m.

Thanks a bunch for sharing your experience with the recipe, Agathe 🤗


Martunia - May 17, 2023, 4:14 p.m.

I had this for breakfast yesterday and this morning as well, it's very satisfying and kept me full for a very long time. I'm not a fan of sweet potatoes but in this recipe their taste didn't bother me much.


Amrita - May 14, 2023, 6:57 p.m.

This is a great recipe, always hits the spot, and perfect for meal prep! I've made this a few times now and here are some ways I've experimented with the flavours which might be fun to try if you have the extra time and ingredients at hand (beware, I am not very specific about quantities below):
1. Tofu scramble - throw some cumin seeds into the oil before adding the onion. After the onion is sauteed, add in some finely chopped fresh ginger and sautee for another couple of minutes before adding the tofu. Once the scramble is done, and off the heat, stir in some chopped fresh cilantro.
2. Sweet potatoes - add some nigella seeds into the oil and cook for about a minute before adding in the cooked potatoes (I got this from a comment on here which I can't seem to find anymore, unfortunately, because this step was a game changer). Along with the other spices, add in some garam masala. And at the end, once you've turned the heat off, stir in some dry mango powder (amchur) - you'll probably have to taste to figure out how much you need to balance the flavour.

PUL Team - May 15, 2023, 7:19 a.m.

Oh, Amrita, thanks so much for sharing the modifications! We'll be sure to give them a try. Happy cooking 🤗


Sambavi - Feb. 25, 2023, 7:20 p.m.

This one is in regular rotation for me! I use chaat masala as a seasoning mixture, and it’s delicious. Thank you, Sadia!

PUL Team - Feb. 26, 2023, 3:08 a.m.

Thanks for sharing your experience with it, Sambavi!


Mariam - Feb. 12, 2023, 9:27 p.m.

Made this as a mealprep for the week and it turned out amazing!!! I love any kind of wrap and these ones just hit the spot. I used yellow potatoes instead of sweet potatoes. Also didn't have the peas. Still one of the best recipes to make! Perfect busy weeknight meal. Very filling also. Thank you Sadia and PUL <3

PUL Team - Feb. 12, 2023, 10:32 p.m.

We appreciate it so much, Mariam, thank YOU!


Anna - Oct. 21, 2022, 9:59 p.m.

I don't have nutritional yeast flakes, is the recipe going to be OK without that ingredient?

PUL Team - Oct. 23, 2022, 7:08 p.m.

Hey Anna! The nutritional yeast helps to add a cheesy and creaminess to the tofu scramble. You could try substituting the nutritional yeast for pulverized cashews to help mimic the creamy mouthfeel or exclude it if desired for a less cheesy/creamy filling. We'd recommend giving the tofu scramble a taste and adjusting the spices if needed 😊


Erica - June 9, 2022, 7:11 p.m.

I love tofu scramble but the sweet potatoes elevate it to a new level! I love that you can meal prep this ahead of time and quickly assemble in the morning!

PUL Team - June 10, 2022, 11:52 p.m.

It means so mean the wraps are being enjoyed! Thank you, Erica :)


Caitlin - April 10, 2022, 12:24 p.m.

Theses wraps are so flavorful and comforting! They are perfect for a Saturday or Sunday brunch, and leftovers throughout the week are amazing!

PUL Team - April 11, 2022, 1:02 a.m.

So happy it's being enjoyed, Caitlin, it means so much 😊


Connie Cockrell - March 12, 2022, 4:35 p.m.

Made this dish this morning. Delish! Even better, enough left over for breakfast 2 or 3 more times this week.

PUL Team - March 12, 2022, 7:45 p.m.

We're so glad, Connie, enjoy the leftovers!

One of our favorite go-to weeknight recipes.


Zoe - Sept. 1, 2021, 8:04 p.m.

Lisa - Aug. 31, 2021, 4:02 p.m.

Made the tofu scramble separate as just a dish for breakfast, and it was delicious. I did double the amount of turmeric and nutritional yeast for personal flavour choice, but awesome recipe!

PUL Team - Sept. 1, 2021, 2:27 a.m.

So glad you enjoyed the tofu scramble, Lisa, thank you for sharing!


Elizabeth P - Aug. 28, 2021, 7:21 p.m.

Making your tofu scramble recipe for the 2nd time. We are newbies to tofu. My husband loved it. Thank you and I LOVE your YouTube channel ♥️♥️♥️


Marie - Aug. 23, 2021, 8:12 p.m.

Thank you so much for this amazing recipe! 💕 My husband and I loved it. It was so flavorful and filling. We'll be making it again.

PUL Team - Aug. 25, 2021, 7:22 a.m.

Oh so lovely, Marie, thank you for the kind words!


Kaitlyn - Aug. 22, 2021, 3:26 p.m.

The tofu scramble is delicious! I didn't have a red onion so I swapped for a shallot and added some fresh garlic and it was superb! Will definitely make again!


Roza Rozmus - July 27, 2021, 5:39 p.m.

ultimate yumminess!
everything perfectly thought through. will repeat over and over! and the scambled tofu may as well be served as such.

PUL Team - July 29, 2021, 2:08 a.m.

So glad you're enjoying the recipe, Roza, thanks a bunch 🤩


Chris - July 20, 2021, 9:17 a.m.

I only made the scrambled tofu from this recipe, because I was pressed for time during my lunch break. I loved it! I will definitely make again.


Louise Magnusson🇸🇪 - July 16, 2021, 8:31 a.m.

Wow, I never thought that I’d say this: this tofu scramble is even better than scrambled eggs🤣. Scrambled eggs can get wrong in so many ways, so it’s amazing to have a vegan version that is far more consistent. Moist yet chunky consistency with a delicious flavour that resembles egg yolk. Due to my type 1 diabetes, I excluded the pita wrapping and used a veganised pyttipanna (Scandinavian dish) instead of the sweet potato samosa. It became such a lovely weekend breakfast that was so simple to prepare in advance. Thank you PUL❤️

PUL Team - July 18, 2021, 2:19 a.m.

We appreciate the review so much, Louise, it means so much! The thanks is to you 💖


Summer - July 10, 2021, 11:26 a.m.

Great recipie! I’ve actually used the scrambled tofu recipe as a complimentary to have with other breakfasts whenever I’ve craved something savory and sweet at the same time😋


Michalina - July 9, 2021, 4:41 p.m.

Great recipe! Made this many times and love it:)


Alexxis - July 8, 2021, 10:49 p.m.

Worth the effort! Sooo yummy and great for meal prep!

PUL Team - July 11, 2021, 2:49 p.m.

So glad the labour of love was worth it! Thank you, Alexxis ✨


Cris S - June 5, 2021, 5:11 p.m.

It was quite good, although I find I'd do it with only one sweet potato and more green peas the next time!


Carole - May 31, 2021, 4:19 p.m.

OMG! This is so yummy!!! Thank you!


Madhura - April 29, 2021, 8:20 a.m.

This is an awesome combination! The wraps are very filling - enough for lunch / dinner. I like to add some carom seeds in the sweet potato mixture.

PUL Team - May 1, 2021, 6:17 a.m.

Ooo that sounds delicious, Madhura, thank you!


Anu - April 23, 2021, 2:51 p.m.

These look amazing, and I’m looking forward to making these this weekend :)! Do you think I could substitute the sweet potato with Japanese sweet potato?

PUL Team - April 24, 2021, 3:28 a.m.

Hey Anu! We haven't tested it out, but imagine that would work. Happy cooking 🤩
