Ingredients

  • 8 ounces firm tofu
  • 2 tablespoon nutritional yeast
  • 1 tsp tahini paste
  • juice of ½ lemon
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • ¼ small red onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • ½ cup red bell pepper, diced
  • ¼ cup Kalamata olives, pitted and halved
  • 1 handful fresh spinach
  • ¼ cup fresh basil, chopped
  • ½ cup cherry tomatoes, halved
  • salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions

  • In a small bowl crumble tofu to the texture of scrambled eggs. Add nutritional yeast, tahini, lemon juice, and salt and set aside.
  • In a large skillet heat oil over medium heat. Add onions and sauté for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add bell pepper and garlic and sauté for another 5 minutes until the bell pepper is tender.
  • Stir crumbled tofu and Kalamata olives. Heat all the way through, stirring occasionally. 
  • Add spinach and basil and stir until spinach has wilted slightly, reducing to about half its size. Remove from heat and stir in cherry tomatoes. Season with salt and pepper. 
  • Divide onto 2 plates and serve immediately. 

Notes

Serving and Storing - Divide it between two plates. Top with cherry tomatoes, salt, pepper, and vegan parmesan. Leftover tofu can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. To reheat the scramble, gently reheat it in a skillet over medium heat or in the microwave until it is warm all the way through.
Recipe Tips - Use firm or extra-firm tofu. Avoid silken tofu as it will not hold together well.
Variations - For a more eggy flavor, add a pinch of black salt to the tofu.
