Ingredients
Scale
1 block (14 ounces) firm or extra-firm tofu, pressed
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 cup diced onion
1/2 cup diced bell pepper (any color)
1/2 cup sliced mushrooms
1/2 cup chopped spinach
1/4 cup nutritional yeast
1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon black salt (kala namak), optional
Salt and black pepper to taste
1/2 avocado, sliced or mashed
Fresh cilantro or parsley, for garnish
Hot sauce, for serving (optional)
Instructions
Crumble the pressed tofu into a bowl using your hands or a fork.
Heat olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and bell pepper and cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
Add the sliced mushrooms and cook for another 3-4 minutes, until they release their moisture.
Stir in the crumbled tofu, nutritional yeast, turmeric powder, garlic powder, and black salt (if using). Cook, stirring occasionally, for 8-10 minutes, until the tofu is heated through and slightly browned.
Add the chopped spinach and cook until wilted, about 1-2 minutes.
Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Serve the tofu scramble in a bowl, topped with sliced or mashed avocado, fresh cilantro or parsley, and hot sauce if desired.
Notes
Pressing the tofu helps remove excess water, resulting in a firmer, more scramble-like texture.
Black salt (kala namak) gives the tofu scramble an eggy flavor. If you don’t have it, you can omit it.
Feel free to customize with your favorite vegetables like zucchini, cherry tomatoes, or kale.
This scramble reheats well, making it great for meal prep.
