Tofu Scramble Recipe

This Simple Tofu Scramble recipe is an easy, high-protein, vegan breakfast that will fill you up and give you energy for hours! And you only need 8 ingredients, 1 pan, and 10 minutes to make it.
Prep Time: 5 minutes
Cook Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 15 minutes
Servings: 2 servings

Ingredients 

  • 16 oz. firm tofu, (drained)
  • 1 medium tomato, (chopped with seeds removed)
  • 1 medium green bell pepper, (chopped with seeds removed)
  • 1/2 medium red onion, (chopped)
  • 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric, (optional)
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • Fresh coriander to garnish
  • Fresh lemon juice to garnish
  • Oil or butter for coating the pan

Instructions

  • Chop the onion, tomato, and bell pepper into cubes.
  • Heat the pan with a little oil or butter. Add the onions, bell pepper, and tomato to the pan and cook for 3 minutes to soften.
  • Crumble the tofu and add it to the pan, stirring to combine with the vegetables.
  • In a small bowl, stir together the spices. Add 1 tbsp of water to the spices and mix to combine, then pour into the tofu scramble and stir until everything is well-mixed.
  • Cook for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to come together, then drizzle with fresh lemon if desired and serve.

Notes

This recipe is for 2 servings.
Be careful not to overcook the tofu, as this can make it dry and crumbly. 
Extra scramble can be stored in the refrigerator for 3-5 days. It keeps very well, so I recommend doubling or tripling the recipe for easy meal prep!
