The BEST Tofu Scramble! If you miss scrambled eggs, this one’s for you. Just 7 ingredients, 10 minutes and 1 pan required!
I don’t know about you, but I used to really enjoy scrambled eggs as a kid. At some point, maybe around 10 or 11 years old, I learned what an egg actually was, and was rather horrified. After that, my relationship with eggs was tainted and I rarely ate them. Eventually, I went vegan and never looked back!
I prefer using firm tofu. Extra-firm is fine as well. There is no need to press your tofu for this recipe; the water will cook out in the first couple of minutes.
Ingredients
- 1 block firm tofu (drained and pressed)
- 1 tbsp olive oil (or preferred oil)
- 1/4 cup onion, diced
- 1/4 cup bell pepper, diced (optional)
- 1/4 cup mushrooms, diced (optional)
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1/2 tsp turmeric (for color and flavor)
- 1/2 tsp cumin
- 1/4 tsp smoked paprika (optional)
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- 2 tbsp nutritional yeast (for cheesy flavor)
- 2 tbsp plant-based milk (unsweetened)
- Fresh herbs (such as parsley or cilantro) for garnish
- Optional: Spinach, kale, or other veggies of your choice
