In a blender combine the tofuttata ingredients until smooth.

When your appetite is low, try eating whatever you want, whenever you want. Eat breakfast foods at supper time if that is appealing. For example, have cereal and milk or scrambled eggs. You can even try our rendition of a frittata made with tofu for an alternative to eggs.
Tofu is made from soy, which is a heart healthy food and can add protein to your diet. For breast cancer survivors, having about 2 servings of minimally processed soy products a day is safe to consume. A serving can include 125 mL (½ cup) of edamame (cooked soybeans), 60 mL (1/4 cup) of soy nuts, 175 mL (¾ cup) of tofu or 250 mL (1 cup) of soymilk.
Recent studies now show that women who have had estrogen-sensitive breast cancers do not need to avoid soy. It's important to talk to your doctor if eating soy foods is right for you.
