Provided by Karissa Besaw

Categories     Breakfast

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 block (14oz) extra firm tofu (no need to press)
2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon kala namak salt (see notes)
1/4 teaspoon paprika
1/4 teaspoon turmeric (optional for color)
pepper to taste
2 cups packed fresh baby spinach
1/2 cup chopped tomatoes
1/2 cup chopped mushrooms

Steps:

  • Drain the tofu, then break it apart using your hands or a couple of forks, until it resembles egg scramble.
  • Mix together the tofu, nutritional yeast, garlic, onion, Kala Namak, turmeric, paprika, and pepper. Let sit for 5 minutes to let the flavors sink in.
  • On medium-low heat, sauté tofu until hot, about 8-10 minutes. I use a nonstick pan to cook my scramble, so I don't find oil is necessary, but you can cook in 2 teaspoons of oil.

EASY TOFU SCRAMBLE



Easy Tofu Scramble image

This easy tofu scramble has the same texture as scrambled eggs, but it's 100% plant based! It's a vegan breakfast idea you'll want to make again and again.

Provided by Sonja Overhiser

Categories     Breakfast

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 11

12 to 14-ounce block extra firm tofu
2 tablespoons olive oil
Heaping 1/4 teaspoon turmeric
1 teaspoon kosher salt
Fresh ground pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon cumin
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 red onion
1 red pepper
2 handfuls baby greens (like baby spinach, baby kale, or a baby greens mix*)

Steps:

  • Drain the tofu container, then pat the tofu dry with a clean dish towel. Place the tofu in a large bowl and use your fingers to break the tofu into bite-sized irregular shaped pieces. (It might be a little cold on your hands: don't worry, it should only take a few seconds!) Stir in the olive oil, turmeric, salt and pepper.
  • Add the cumin and garlic powder to a dry skillet. Cook on medium heat for 1 minute until fragrant. Stir in the tofu and increase the heat to medium high. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until heated through and starting to lightly brown. Remove the heat and place it on the serving plates. Serve with toast, veggie saute (below), or if you want to get fancy, vegan bacon.
  • Meanwhile, thinly slice the onion. Thinly slice the bell pepper. Heat the olive oil in a separate large skillet over medium high heat. When hot, add the onion and peppers. Cook 4 to 6 minutes until just starting to brown, stirring occasionally. Add a pinch of salt and the baby greens. Cook for 30 seconds until wilted. Remove from the heat and serve alongside the tofu scramble.

EASY TOFU SCRAMBLE



Easy Tofu Scramble image

Provided by Food with Feeling

Categories     Breakfast

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 6

12oz block tofu (if yours is a bit more or less, that's totally fine!)
1 tablespoon of olive oil
¼ teaspoon of turmeric powder
½ teaspoon of garlic powder
¼ teaspoon of onion powder
Salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Remove the block of tofu from the container and discard the liquid. You don't need to press the tofu for a long time but pat it dry really god with a towel or paper towels to dry off the outside.
  • Break the tofu into large chunks that are about 1 1/2 inches big (very roughly). The tofu will break up more in the pan so I like to start with larger chunks.
  • In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add in the tofu chunks and remaining ingredients. Stir to combine and continue to cook for about 8 minutes. You want the tofu to be completely warmed through and broken up a bit more.
  • Remove from heat and ENJOY! I like to eat mine with toast and avocado as well as a little hot sauce.

EASY VEGAN TOFU SCRAMBLE



Easy Vegan Tofu Scramble image

Tofu scramble is a popular vegan breakfast dish similar to scrambled eggs. This easy recipe calls for onions and green bell peppers.

Provided by Jolinda Hackett

Categories     Breakfast     Brunch

Time 15m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/2 onion, diced
1/2 green bell pepper, diced
1 block tofu, drained and pressed
2 tablespoons oil, or margarine
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon turmeric, optional
2 tablespoons nutritional yeast

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Prepare the tofu. Like most tofu recipes, the scramble will taste best by pressing the tofu first.
  • Slice the tofu into approximately 1-inch cubes once it has been well pressed.
  • Crumble the tofu slightly using either hands or a fork to get the right consistency for a scramble.
  • Heat the oil or margarine in a large skillet or frying pan and sauté the chopped onion, pepper, and crumbled tofu for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring frequently.
  • Add the garlic powder, onion powder, and soy sauce and reduce the heat down to medium. Allow tofu to cook 5 to 7 more minutes, stirring frequently and adding a bit more oil if needed.
  • Add the nutritional yeast and stir to combine, making sure the tofu is well coated.
  • Serve just as it is, top it off with salsa, wrap it up in a warmed flour tortilla with a bit of salsa for a breakfast burrito, or top with soy or dairy cheese.

THE BEST TOFU SCRAMBLE



The Best Tofu Scramble image

If you like a softly scrambled egg on toast, you're going to love this soft-scrambled tofu recipe. The secret is the addition of Indian black salt (also known as kala namak or black lava salt), which has an egglike flavor and is available online or at specialty food stores. Because it is lower in sodium, we round out the dish with a little kosher salt too. We like our scramble on toast but it would also make a great filling for a vegan breakfast burrito.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 20m

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

One 16-ounce block soft tofu, drained
1/2 teaspoon Indian black salt
1/8 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 tablespoon vegan butter
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 slices bread
1/4 cup shredded vegan Cheddar-style cheese (about 2 ounces)

Steps:

  • Gently wrap the tofu in a clean kitchen towel or a double layer of paper towels to blot out excess moisture. Place the tofu in a medium bowl. Add the black salt and turmeric and stir well with a fork, crumbling the tofu and fully combining the spices.
  • Melt the vegan butter in a medium nonstick pan over medium-high heat, swirling the pan to coat evenly. Add the tofu mixture and spread it out evenly in the pan using a rubber spatula. Season with a pinch of kosher salt and a few grinds of pepper and cook undisturbed until the edges begin to turn yellow from the turmeric and some moisture is bubbling up, about 1 minute 30 seconds.
  • Gently stir the scramble, folding the cooked side over and redistributing the tofu to allow it to cook in an even layer. Continue to cook, stirring every 1 minute 30 seconds, until most of the moisture is evaporated and the tofu is the consistency of custardy scrambled eggs, 7 to 9 minutes. As it simmers, more liquid will bubble up and then it will dry out and the scramble will turn a uniform pale yellow color.
  • Meanwhile, toast the bread. Divide the scramble between the bread slices and top each with half the vegan cheese.

THE BEST TOFU SCRAMBLE



The Best Tofu Scramble image

Another favorite from La Dolce Vegan...I like to make extra...it keeps well in the fridge all week...then I use it again and again for different things when I am feeling lazy. I like to take left-overs of this and put it in with sliced pan-fried potatoes, just when the potatoes are almost done cooking...yum! Makes great egg sandwiches, too! I like to slice cherry tomatoes in half instead of using big tomatoes, as the little ones are more dependable flavor-wise all year long. I like to add the tomatoes a few minutes before cooking is done, just so they get a bit cooked and shriveled...just my preference. Oh, and drain, drain, drain that tofu before you use it, as always!!!
