Ingredients

• 1 Bagel of choice (vegan-friendly, such as plain, everything, or sesame)
• 0.25 block Firm tofu
• 0.25 teaspoon Turmeric powder
• 1 tablespoon Nutritional yeast
• 1 tablespoon Unsweetened plant-based milk (such as almond or soy)
• 0.25 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 0.25 teaspoon Kala namak (black salt, for eggy flavor)
• 2 strips Plant-based bacon strips
• 2 leaves Fresh lettuce leaves
• 2 slices Tomato, sliced
• 1 tablespoon Vegan mayonnaise
• 0.125 teaspoon Salt
• 0.125 teaspoon Pepper
• 1 teaspoon Olive oil or vegan butter (for cooking tofu)

Directions

Step 1

Drain and pat the tofu dry with a paper towel. Crumble it into small pieces with your hands or a fork, resembling scrambled eggs.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix turmeric powder, nutritional yeast, plant-based milk, garlic powder, kala namak (for eggy flavor), salt, and pepper. Pour this mixture over the crumbled tofu and gently toss to coat.

Step 3

Heat olive oil or vegan butter in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the tofu mixture and cook for 5–7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tofu is heated through and lightly golden.

Step 4

In a separate skillet or microwave, cook the plant-based bacon strips according to the package instructions until crispy.

Step 5

Slice and toast your vegan-friendly bagel to your desired level of crispiness.

Step 6

Spread vegan mayonnaise on the inner sides of the toasted bagel halves.

Step 7

On the bottom half of the bagel, layer the cooked tofu scramble, plant-based bacon strips, fresh lettuce leaves, and tomato slices.

Step 8

Place the top half of the bagel on the assembled sandwich, press gently, and serve warm.
