Keyword: mushrooms, protein, red peppers, tofu, tomato, zucchini

Servings: 1/2 cups

1 bell pepper (diced)
1/2 cup diced vegetables of choice, such as onion, zucchini, mushrooms, or carrot
1 tbsp minced garlic
16 oz tofu (silken or firm)
1 tbsp nutritional yeast (optional)
1 tsp curry powder
1 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp ground turmeric
1/2 tsp salt
1 pinch black pepper (optional)
1 handful spinach or kale if desired

1. Grease a nonstick pan, or add a little oil to prevent sticking.
2. Sauté the diced vegetables and garlic over medium heat until lightly browned.
3. Drain the tofu, then add it to the pan. If using firm tofu, break it up with a spatula. Silken tofu will break up on its own as you stir.
4. Add the spices and salt. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until the tofu is hot and extra liquid has evaporated so it looks like scrambled eggs.
5. Stir in the spinach until it wilts.
6. Serve your tofu scramble with toast, home fries, sliced avocado, salsa or hot sauce, a sprinkle of black pepper and nutritional yeast, or anything you wish.
