Servings: 2
Calories: 147kcal
Ingredients
- 1 block (14oz) extra-firm tofu no need to press
- 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/4 teaspoon kala namak salt see notes
- 1/4 teaspoon paprika
- 1/4 teaspoon turmeric optional for color
- pepper to taste
Optional veggie add-ins
- 2 cups packed fresh baby spinach
- 1/2 cup chopped tomatoes
- 1/2 cup chopped mushrooms
Instructions
- Drain the tofu, then break it apart using your hands or a couple of forks, until it resembles egg scramble.
- Mix together the tofu, nutritional yeast, garlic, onion, Kala Namak, turmeric, paprika, and pepper. Let sit for 5 minutes to let the flavors sink in.
- On medium-low heat, sauté tofu until hot, about 8-10 minutes. I use a nonstick pan to cook my scramble, so I don't find oil is necessary, but you can cook in 2 teaspoons of oil.
Notes
- If you like a wetter "egg" scramble, sauté with 2 tablespoons of water.
- Don't like nutritional yeast? Go ahead and leave it out.
- You can use regular table salt in place of kala namak.
