Tofu Scramble

 

Tofu Scramble                                            serves 2

Instead of scrambled eggs, try using tofu.  Adding veggies will make it especially nice.

Ingredients 

·         1 tablespoon olive oil or other cooking oil

·         (1) 16-ounce block firm tofu

·         2 tablespoons nutritional yeast or parmesan cheese

·         1/2 teaspoon salt, or more to taste

·         1/4 teaspoon turmeric

·         1/4 teaspoon garlic powder

·         2 tablespoons milk

·         vegetables, optional

 

Instructions

Heat the olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Mash the block of tofu right in the pan, with a potato masher or a fork. You can also crumble it into the pan with your hands. Cook, stirring frequently, for 3-4 minutes until the water from the tofu is mostly gone.


Now add the nutritional yeast, salt, turmeric and garlic powder. Cook and stir constantly for about 5 minutes.

Pour the milk into the pan, and stir to mix. Serve immediately with sliced avocado, hot sauce, parsley, steamed kale, more cheese and toast or any other breakfast item.

 

Enjoy!

  Adding veggies is delicious!

Tofu Scramble is also good with all sorts of vegetables mixed in.

You can saute ¼ cup diced onion or a few cloves of minced garlic in the oil for 2-3 minutes before adding and mashing the tofu.

You can also add fresh spinach, kale, thin sliced red peppers, small chopped broccoli or fresh sliced/diced tomatoes to the pan after you have poured the milk into the pan.
