Tofu Mushroom Tacos


As mentioned in my previous post about veggie egg tacos, eggs are great for a quick and easy snack or light lunch! However, I often crack an egg in my porridge at breakfast so I'm reluctant to go over my one daily egg allowance.
Eggs have about 180-200mg cholesterol and the average daily cholesterol allowance is only 300mg.

Therefore, eating tofu instead of eggs is a great alternative. This tofu mushroom taco recipe is cholesterol free and super tasty.
