Ingredients

• 14 oz firm tofu
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 0.5 tsp turmeric powder
• 2 tbsp nutritional yeast
• 0.5 tsp garlic powder
• 0.5 tsp onion powder
• 0.25 tsp black salt (Kala Namak)
• 1 red bell pepper
• 2 cups baby spinach
• 1 cup cherry tomatoes
• 2 green onions
• 0.25 tsp salt
• 0.25 tsp black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Drain the tofu and pat it dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. Crumble it into small, bite-sized pieces using your hands or a fork and set it aside.

Step 2

Dice the red bell pepper, halve the cherry tomatoes, and chop the green onions.

Step 3

In a medium-sized skillet over medium heat, add the olive oil. Once heated, add the diced bell pepper and sauté for about 3 minutes until they begin to soften.

Step 4

Add the crumbled tofu to the skillet. Stir in the turmeric powder, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, onion powder, and black salt, mixing until the tofu is well-coated with the spices.

Step 5

Cook the tofu for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it starts to turn golden and slightly crispy.

Step 6

Add the baby spinach and cherry tomatoes to the skillet with the tofu. Stir and cook for another 3 minutes, until the spinach wilts and the tomatoes are slightly softened.

Step 7

Mix in the chopped green onions and season with regular salt and black pepper.

Step 8

Continue to cook for an additional 2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until everything is heated through and well combined.

Step 9

Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary, adding more black salt for a stronger egg-like flavor.

Step 10

Serve immediately, garnished with additional green onions or a sprinkle of nutritional yeast if desired.
