Very Veggie Scrambled Tofu

One of the things vegetarians turning vegan might miss the most are eggs. Eggs give so many possibilities. You can eat them fried, hard boiled, poached, as omlettes, in desserts and of course scrambled. Fortunately there’s a miracle ingredient out there, tofu. It can imitate meat or eggs in some recipes and scrambled tofu is a typical vegan breakfast.

Ingredients (serves 1):

6 oz tofu
1/4 cup frozen peas
1/4 cup cut asparagus
1/2 cup cherry tomatoes halved
1 green onion finely chopped
1 tsp turmeric
1 Tbsp low sodium soy sauce
1/2 tsp garlic powder
A pinch of cayenne pepper
1 Tbsp olivio spread or any vegan butter substitute



To start mince your tofu with fork, add soy sauce, turmeric, garlic powder, cayenne pepper and mix. In a skillet melt buttery spread and add veggies (except green onion). Continue cooking on a medium heat until veggies are soft. If necessary add a tiny  bit of water and let it evaporate.

Add tofu, green onions and stir around. Continue cooking about 2 more min and serve with a toast.

    What kind of tofu do you recommend – soft or firm?

    I used firm tofu but some people use silken tofu. I’m assuming firm tofu resembles more well done eggs, while silken tofu might be a little bit more like soft eggs.
