Tofu Breakfast Scramble
(4 servings)
- 1 16-ounce block firm water-packed tofu - rinsed and drained
-
olive oil for frying
-
1/2 teaspoon granulated onion
-
2 Tablespoons nutritional yeast flakes (optional)
-
1/4 teaspoon turmeric for color (optional)
-
1 small onion - thinly sliced
-
5 button mushrooms - sliced
-
1/4 of a medium red or green bell pepper - finely chopped
-
1 clove garlic - minced
-
1 splash soy sauce
-
salt and pepper - to taste
Place a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add a splash of olive oil and saute the sliced onion, sliced mushrooms, chopped pepper and minced garlic until the vegetables begin to get tender - about 5 minutes.
Crumble the tofu into the pan. Stirring and flipping occasionally, cook until the crumbled tofu is evenly browned - about 6 to 10 minutes.
Add the granulated onion, nutritional yeast flakes and turmeric. Stir to combine.
Reduce heat to low and let the scramble set for about 5 minutes for all the flavors to infuse.
Season with a splash of soy sauce and salt and pepper to taste.
A healthy, protein-packed alternative to ordinary scrambled eggs.
