Ingredients

• 200 grams firm tofu
• 3 tablespoons nutritional yeast
• 0.5 teaspoon turmeric powder
• 0.5 teaspoon black salt (Kala Namak)
• 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 4 slices sourdough bread
• 100 grams vegan cheese (shredded)
• 100 grams cherry tomatoes
• 50 grams baby spinach
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 2 tablespoons parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Drain and press the tofu to remove excess moisture, then crumble it into small, scrambled-egg-like pieces using your hands or a fork.

Step 2

In a bowl, mix the crumbled tofu with nutritional yeast, turmeric powder, black salt, unsweetened almond milk, and black pepper. Stir well to combine.

Step 3

Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the tofu mixture and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally until it is heated through and slightly golden.

Step 4

Meanwhile, toast the slices of sourdough bread in a toaster or under a broiler until they are golden and crispy.

Step 5

In another pan, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil on medium heat. Add the cherry tomatoes and cook until they are blistered and soft, around 3 minutes.

Step 6

Once the tofu is cooked, remove it from the heat, then stir in the shredded vegan cheese until it is melted and incorporated.

Step 7

Spread the cheesy tofu mixture evenly over the toasted sourdough slices.

Step 8

Top each slice with a few pieces of blistered cherry tomatoes and a handful of baby spinach.

Step 9

Optionally, garnish with freshly chopped parsley for a pop of color and added flavor.

Step 10

Serve warm and enjoy your vegan cheesy egg toast!
