Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 14 oz Firm tofu
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
- 0.5 tsp Turmeric powder
- 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
- 0.5 tsp Onion powder
- 0.25 tsp Paprika
- 1.5 tbsp Nutritional yeast
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
- 1 cup Spinach, chopped
- 0.5 cup Cherry tomatoes, halved
Instructions
Drain the tofu and press it between two plates or with a tofu press for 5-10 minutes to remove excess water.
Heat olive oil in a large non-stick pan over medium heat.
Crumble the tofu into small, bite-sized pieces with your hands or a fork and add it to the pan.
Sprinkle turmeric powder, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, nutritional yeast, salt, and black pepper over the tofu.
Stir everything well to evenly coat the tofu in the spices, and cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add the chopped spinach and halved cherry tomatoes to the pan.
Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, until the spinach wilts and the tomatoes soften slightly.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve warm and enjoy!
