Calories: 129kcal
Ingredients
- 1 package (14 oz) medium firm tofu, drained
- 1 tablespoon olive oil or vegan butter
- 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
- 1/4 teaspoon turmeric
- 1/4 teaspoon granulated garlic
- 1/4 teaspoon black salt
Instructions
- Add tofu to a large bowl and use a fork or potato masher to crumble tofu into small pieces.
- Add olive oil in non-stick skillet over low heat.
- Add tofu, nutritional yeast, turmeric, and garlic. Toss to coat tofu in seasonings. Cook over low to medium-low heat until liquid from tofu has cooked off and tofu is warm.
- Season with salt and pepper. Taste and add more salt as needed.
Notes
- Add some veggies: Add color and nutrients to this vegan scramble by sautéing some red peppers or fresh spinach in the pan before you add the crumbled tofu.
- Don't overcook your tofu: the best part of this easy tofu scramble recipe is the short cook time! You really only need to cook your tofu for about 5 minutes. If you overcook the tofu, it can turn dry and rubbery.
- Storage: leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, add to a skillet to warm up on the stove.
