• 1 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 cups fresh spinach
• 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk

Directions

Step 1

Drain the tofu and lightly press it between paper towels to remove excess moisture.

Step 2

In a medium bowl, crumble the tofu using a fork or your hands until it resembles the texture of scrambled eggs.

Once the oil is hot, add the seasoned tofu mixture to the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 6

Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and pour in the almond milk, gently folding it into the tofu scramble until the spinach wilts, about 2-3 minutes.
