INGREDIENTS:
The basic scramble:
1 block of organic extra-firm tofu (wrapped in a clean kitchen towel or paper towels with a heavy plate or some books on top for 5-15 minutes to remove the excess moisture)
2 teaspoons turmeric
2 teaspoons smoked paprika
2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
1 teaspoon garlic powder
2 tablespoons liquid aminos
salt and pepper to taste
Optional Add-Ins:
chopped onion
peppers
mushrooms
broccoli
tomatoes
greens
vegan shredded cheese
hot sauce
vegan cheddar sauce
COOKING INSTRUCTIONS:
To make the scramble first take the tofu and either break it into a crumble with your hands, or in a blender or food processor. You just want it to resemble scrambled eggs.
Next add all of the spices, nutritional yeast, and coconut aminos to the the tofu in a bowl, and mix well.
If you are adding vegetable, add 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet on medium heat, and begin cooking the veggies until they begin to soften.
Next add the tofu to the pan of vegetables. You may need a little extra oil if the tofu seems to be sticking. You can also add a few extra splashes of amnios if the mixture seems dry.
Heat until the tofu is warmed through and you are ready to eat!
