Ingredients
- 14 ounces Firm tofu
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 2 tablespoons Nutritional yeast
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 medium Red bell pepper, diced
- 1 cup Spinach, chopped
- 2 stalks Green onions, sliced
- 2 tablespoons Plant-based milk (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Drain and press the tofu between two plates with a weight on top for 5 minutes to remove excess water. Pat it dry with a clean towel.
Step 2
Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Step 3
Crumble the tofu into the skillet using your hands to achieve a scrambled texture.
Step 4
Sprinkle the turmeric powder, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper over the tofu. Stir well to coat evenly.
Step 5
Cook the tofu for 3–4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the spices are well incorporated and the tofu is heated through.
Step 6
Add the diced red bell pepper and cook for another 2 minutes, allowing it to soften slightly.
Step 7
Stir in the spinach and cook for 1–2 minutes until it wilts.
Step 8
If you prefer creamier scrambled tofu, stir in 2 tablespoons of plant-based milk at this point.
Step 9
Top with sliced green onions and serve hot. Pair with toast, avocado, or your favorite breakfast sides.
