Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 14 ounces firm tofu
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons turmeric powder
- 0.5 teaspoons sea salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
- 2 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
- 1 cup fresh spinach
- 0.5 cup cherry tomatoes
- 2 stalks green onions
Instructions
Drain and press the tofu to remove excess liquid. Once drained, crumble it into small pieces resembling scrambled eggs.
Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Add the crumbled tofu to the skillet and cook for about 2 minutes, stirring frequently.
Sprinkle in the garlic powder, turmeric powder, sea salt, and black pepper. Stir well to coat the tofu evenly with the spices.
Stir in the nutritional yeast and pour in the almond milk. Continue to cook for another 3-4 minutes, ensuring the tofu absorbs the flavors and liquid is mostly evaporated.
Add the fresh spinach and cherry tomatoes to the skillet. Cook for an additional 2 minutes, or until the spinach has wilted and the tomatoes are softened.
Chop the green onions and sprinkle them over the tofu scramble, then give the mixture a final stir.
Remove from heat and serve hot.
