Recipe Developer Shares Meal Prep Vegan Breakfast With 40g Of Protein

Merle O’Neal, a well-known vegan content creator and recipe developer, recently shared her go-to high-protein meal prep breakfast: freezer-friendly breakfast burritos packed with 40 grams of protein each. Designed to be convenient, nourishing, and easy to grab on busy mornings, this recipe has quickly gained attention for its balance of flavor and nutrition.

The secret to these protein-packed burritos lies in a well-seasoned tofu scramble combined with marinated tempeh bacon. The tofu, infused with bold flavors like nutritional yeast, black salt, and smoked paprika, delivers a rich and savory bite, while the tempeh adds a smoky depth reminiscent of bacon. You can also use ingredients like sautéed mushrooms, bell peppers, and black beans.
