Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 14 ounces firm tofu
- 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
- 3 tablespoons unsweetened almond milk
- 0.5 teaspoons turmeric powder
- 0.5 teaspoons black salt (Kala Namak)
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 cup spinach
- 0.5 cup cherry tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons chives
Instructions
Begin by draining the firm tofu and patting it with a paper towel to remove excess water.
In a mixing bowl, crumble the tofu into small, uneven pieces using your hands or a fork to mimic the texture of scrambled eggs.
Add nutritional yeast, unsweetened almond milk, turmeric powder, black salt, and black pepper to the crumbled tofu. Mix well to combine all the ingredients evenly.
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, add the tofu mixture to the skillet and stir occasionally, cooking for about 5 minutes until the tofu is heated through and becomes slightly golden.
While the tofu is cooking, wash and roughly chop the spinach. Halve the cherry tomatoes.
Add the chopped spinach and cherry tomatoes to the skillet, stirring to combine. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the spinach has wilted and the tomatoes are slightly softened.
Remove the skillet from heat and sprinkle chopped chives over the scrambled tofu.
Serve hot as a standalone dish or with toast, avocado, or your favorite breakfast sides.
