Notes

 

When I was young, we had family friends show us how to make Puerto Rican dishes. One was this scrambled eggs and plantain recipe. We ate it with white rice and it was amazing. It was the first time I’ve ever tried cilantro and have been obsessed with it since. What’s not to like? Anything with plantains was a win in my book.

So here we have the veganized version and it’s still as delicious as I remember. Thank you Just Egg for giving us this option of a plant based egg yuminess!
