Mediterranean Tofu Scramble
Mediterranean Tofu Scramble- a hearty, savory vegan breakfast loaded with marinated artichokes, red bell peppers, and mixed olives. A healthy and protein-packed way to start your day!
Ingredients
- 1/2 14-oz block extra firm tofu
- 1/2 red bell pepper
- 12 mixed olives
- 4 marinated artichoke quarters
- 2 tsp nutritional yeast
- 1 tsp ground turmeric
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp salt (or to taste)
- 3 tbsp water
- 2 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
- Drain excess water from tofu: place tofu on a plate and then cover with another plate. Use a book or other heavy object to weigh down the top plate. Let sit while preparing other ingredients.
- Slice bell pepper into strips. Cut olives and artichoke quarters in half, if desired.
- In a small bowl, create the flavoring sauce. Combine nutritional yeast, turmeric, onion powder, garlic, salt and water. Set aside.
- Heat olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add bell pepper and cook until beginning to soften, about 3 minutes.
- Crumble tofu into the pan and stir. Crumble into small pieces, with the result looking similar to scrambled eggs.
- Pour sauce over all of the tofu and toss until evenly coated.
- Add olives and artichokes and stir to combine. Cook for another minute or so. Divide into two portions and serve.
