TOFU SCRAMBLE BREAKFAST BURRITO RECIPE BY TASTY



Tofu Scramble Breakfast Burrito Recipe by Tasty image

Here's what you need: medium yukon potatoes, olive oil, smoked paprika, dried oregano, garlic powder, kosher salt, pepper, extra firm tofu, low sodium soy sauce, nutritional yeast, onion powder, ground turmeric, grape tomatoes, fresh spinach, large flour tortillas, avocado, hot sauce

Provided by Rachel Gaewski

Categories     Lunch

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

3 medium yukon potatoes, peeled and cubed
olive oil, to taste
½ teaspoon smoked paprika
½ teaspoon dried oregano
3 teaspoons garlic powder, divided
kosher salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
14 oz extra firm tofu, 1 block
3 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
3 tablespoons nutritional yeast
1 teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon ground turmeric
1 cup grape tomatoes, halved
3 cups fresh spinach
4 large flour tortillas
1 avocado, for serving, diced
hot sauce, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • Add the potatoes to a baking sheet with a drizzle of olive oil, the paprika, oregano, ½ teaspoon of garlic powder, salt, and pepper and toss until well coated.
  • Bake for 20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the potatoes are tender.
  • Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, crumble the block of tofu into the pan until it resembles the consistency of scrambled eggs, being careful not to over-crumble because it will continue to break apart as you cook. Cook for 4-5 minutes, until the tofu is slightly golden.
  • Add the soy sauce, nutritional yeast, the remaining 2½ teaspoons garlic powder, the onion powder, turmeric, salt, and pepper and stir until well combined. Add the tomatoes and cook for 4-5 minutes, until the tomatoes become slightly wrinkled. Add the spinach and cook until wilted, 3-4 minutes.
  • To assemble a burrito, add ¼ of the tofu scramble, ¼ of the potatoes, some avocado, and hot sauce to the center of a tortilla. Fold in the sides and roll up, keeping the filling tucked in place. Repeat with the remaining ingredients. Cut in half and serve.
  • Enjoy!

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dinner Recipes

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 container (14 ounces) firm or extra-firm tofu, drained
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 small onion, halved and thinly sliced
1 tablespoon curry powder
Coarse salt and ground pepper
4 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 cup lite coconut milk
1 box (10 ounces) frozen green beans, defrosted
4 plum tomatoes, halved lengthwise and cut crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces (3 cups)
Cooked white rice, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Halve tofu horizontally; then crosswise. (You should have 4 equal squares). Cut each square diagonally into 2 triangles. Arrange tofu in one layer on a baking sheet lined with 3 layers of paper towels; cover with three more layers. Place another baking sheet and a weight on top. Let tofu drain until towels are soaked, about 20 minutes.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add tofu, and cook, turning once, until golden-brown, about 10 minutes. Remove from pan to a plate. Reduce heat to medium. Add remaining tablespoon oil, onion, and curry powder. Season generously with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, until onion is soft, about 5 minutes. Add garlic; cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  • Reduce heat to medium-low. Add coconut milk and 1/2 cup water; bring to a gentle simmer. Return tofu to skillet. Add green beans and tomatoes, cover, and cook until tender, about 4 minutes. Serve over rice if desired.
