Easiest Breakfast Tofu Scramble Recipes

EASY TOFU SCRAMBLE

Steps:

• Drain the tofu container, then pat the tofu dry with a clean dish towel. Place the tofu in a large bowl and use your fingers to break the tofu into bite-sized irregular shaped pieces. (It might be a little cold on your hands: don't worry, it should only take a few seconds!) Stir in the olive oil, turmeric, salt and pepper.
• Add the cumin and garlic powder to a dry skillet. Cook on medium heat for 1 minute until fragrant. Stir in the tofu and increase the heat to medium high. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until heated through and starting to lightly brown. Remove the heat and place it on the serving plates. Serve with toast, veggie saute (below), or if you want to get fancy, vegan bacon.
• Meanwhile, thinly slice the onion. Thinly slice the bell pepper. Heat the olive oil in a separate large skillet over medium high heat. When hot, add the onion and peppers. Cook 4 to 6 minutes until just starting to brown, stirring occasionally. Add a pinch of salt and the baby greens. Cook for 30 seconds until wilted. Remove from the heat and serve alongside the tofu scramble.

VEGAN TOFU SCRAMBLE BREAKFAST SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large pan over medium heat. Crumble tofu into roughly 1-inch pieces and add to the pan. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes. Add canned tomatoes and cook until excess liquid has evaporated, 5 to 10 minutes. Add bell pepper and onion and cook until onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic, nutritional yeast, soy sauce, red pepper flakes, paprika, turmeric, and salt. Cook and stir for 2 minutes more.
• Spread mayonnaise over sandwich buns and top with tofu mixture, spinach, and avocado.

BASIC BREAKFAST TOFU SCRAMBLE

Steps:

• Spray non-stick frying generously with cooking spray, and heat over medium.
• Drain the package of tofu and crumble into the pan. Cook for 3-4 mins, until tofu begins to release some of its water.
• Add the remaining ingredients (except the creamer) and mix well to combine evenly.
• Cook for another 10 minutes or so, stirring regularly.
• When tofu releases most of its water, and begins to firm up, add creamer and mix well.
• Cook another 1-2 minutes, allowing some of the liquid to evaporate, then remove from heat.
• Serve with toast!

THE BEST TOFU SCRAMBLE

Steps:

• Gently wrap the tofu in a clean kitchen towel or a double layer of paper towels to blot out excess moisture. Place the tofu in a medium bowl. Add the black salt and turmeric and stir well with a fork, crumbling the tofu and fully combining the spices.
• Melt the vegan butter in a medium nonstick pan over medium-high heat, swirling the pan to coat evenly. Add the tofu mixture and spread it out evenly in the pan using a rubber spatula. Season with a pinch of kosher salt and a few grinds of pepper and cook undisturbed until the edges begin to turn yellow from the turmeric and some moisture is bubbling up, about 1 minute 30 seconds.
• Gently stir the scramble, folding the cooked side over and redistributing the tofu to allow it to cook in an even layer. Continue to cook, stirring every 1 minute 30 seconds, until most of the moisture is evaporated and the tofu is the consistency of custardy scrambled eggs, 7 to 9 minutes. As it simmers, more liquid will bubble up and then it will dry out and the scramble will turn a uniform pale yellow color.
• Meanwhile, toast the bread. Divide the scramble between the bread slices and top each with half the vegan cheese.

EASY VEGAN TOFU SCRAMBLE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Prepare the tofu. Like most tofu recipes, the scramble will taste best by pressing the tofu first.
• Slice the tofu into approximately 1-inch cubes once it has been well pressed.
• Crumble the tofu slightly using either hands or a fork to get the right consistency for a scramble.
• Heat the oil or margarine in a large skillet or frying pan and sauté the chopped onion, pepper, and crumbled tofu for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring frequently.
• Add the garlic powder, onion powder, and soy sauce and reduce the heat down to medium. Allow tofu to cook 5 to 7 more minutes, stirring frequently and adding a bit more oil if needed.
• Add the nutritional yeast and stir to combine, making sure the tofu is well coated.
• Serve just as it is, top it off with salsa, wrap it up in a warmed flour tortilla with a bit of salsa for a breakfast burrito, or top with soy or dairy cheese.

TOFU SCRAMBLE

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a frying pan over a medium heat and gently fry the onion for 8 -10 mins or until golden brown and sticky. Stir in the garlic, turmeric, cumin and paprika and cook for 1 min.
• Roughly mash the tofu in a bowl using a fork, keeping some pieces chunky. Add to the pan and fry for 3 mins. Raise the heat, then tip in the tomatoes, cooking for 5 mins more or until they begin to soften. Fold the parsley through the mixture. Serve on its own or with toasted rye bread (not gluten-free), if you like.

TOFU SCRAMBLE WRAPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a baking tray with parchment paper or a silicone liner (such as Silpat®).
• Combine sweet potatoes, onion, bell pepper, lime juice, coconut aminos, garlic powder, and pepper for potatoes in a medium bowl, stirring so that everything is evenly coated. Transfer to the prepared baking tray.
• Cook in the preheated oven until crisp and tender, 30 to 40 minutes, stirring halfway through cooking time.
• While the potatoes are cooking, crumble the tofu into a large, nonstick pan. Add nutritional yeast, coconut aminos, garlic powder, pepper, and black salt. Cook over low heat, adding 1 tablespoon of water at a time if the tofu starts to stick, for 10 minutes. Add seitan and tomato, and cook until everything is warmed through, about 20 minutes.
• Place a tortilla on a flat surface. Place some potatoes, avocado, and tofu scramble on the tortilla. Start at the bottom and fold the tortilla edge up and over the center into a wrap. Repeat to form remaining wraps.
• Heat a flat-bottomed, cast iron pan over medium heat. Place the wraps in the hot pan, folded-side down. Cook until golden brown and sealed, about 4 minutes.
