Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 14 oz Extra firm tofu
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 0.5 tsp Turmeric powder
- 2 tbsp Nutritional yeast
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
- 1 medium Onion, diced
- 1 medium Red bell pepper, diced
- 2 cups Spinach, chopped
- 4 links Vegan sausage, sliced
- 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
- 1 tbsp Soy sauce
- 2 stalks Green onions, sliced
Instructions
Drain the tofu and pat it dry with paper towels. Crumble the tofu with your hands or a fork into a bowl, aiming for a scrambled egg consistency.
In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and red bell pepper and sauté for 5-7 minutes or until softened.
Add the sliced vegan sausage to the skillet and cook for another 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sausage is browned.
Push the vegetables and sausage to one side of the skillet. In the empty space, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and the crumbled tofu.
Sprinkle the turmeric, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper over the tofu. Stir well, incorporating the spices evenly.
Add the chopped spinach to the skillet, mixing it with both the tofu and vegetable mixture. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the spinach is wilted.
Drizzle the soy sauce over the entire mixture and stir to combine well.
Once everything is heated through and well mixed, remove from heat and garnish with sliced green onions.
Serve immediately, enjoying the flavorful mix of tofu scramble, vegan sausage, and fresh vegetables.
