Vegetarian Tofu Scramble

Ingredients

• Salt (1/2 teaspoon (or to taste))
• Black pepper (1/4 teaspoon (or to taste))
• Nutritional yeast (2 tablespoons)
• Turmeric (1/2 teaspoon)
• Garlic (2 cloves, minced)
• Bell peppers (1 cup, diced (any color))
• Onion (1 medium, diced)
• Olive oil (2 tablespoons)
• Firm tofu (1 block (14 ounces), drained and pressed)

Instructions

1. Begin by draining and pressing the tofu. Wrap it in a clean kitchen towel or paper towels and place a heavy object on top to extract excess water. Let it sit for about 15 minutes.
2. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is shimmering, add the diced onion, bell peppers, and minced garlic. Sauté the vegetables until they are soft and the onions are translucent, about 5 minutes.
3. Crumble the pressed tofu into the skillet. Sprinkle the turmeric, nutritional yeast, salt, and pepper over the tofu.
4. Stir everything together and cook until the tofu is heated through and the spices are evenly distributed, about 10 minutes. Make sure to stir frequently to prevent sticking.
5. Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. Serve your tofu scramble hot with toast, or use it as a filling for a breakfast burrito. Enjoy!
