ULTRA-SATISFYING VEGGIE TOFU SCRAMBLE
When it comes to choosing tofu for this scramble, you have a couple options. We love extra firm silken tofu, but regular firm or extra firm tofu will work. Check in the notes section below the recipe for our tips. We keep the seasonings simple for this recipe, but if you want to turn this into a Southwestern-style scramble, add 1/2 teaspoon of chili powder and a 1/4 teaspoon of ground cumin to the spice mixture. You can also add some heat with hot sauce or crushed red pepper flakes.

Steps:
- Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally until they smell sweet and soften, about 3 minutes. Tumble in the tofu then use the back of a spoon to break it apart in the pan, making it look like scrambled eggs.
- Add salt, turmeric, garlic powder, and the mushroom powder to a small bowl then add a splash of water. Stir to make a slurry then stir into the tofu. Cook until any excess water released from the tofu evaporates, about 2 minutes.
- Slide the pan off of the heat then stir in spinach and the chopped tomatoes until the spinach is mostly wilted. Taste then season with more salt if needed as well as a few grinds of fresh black pepper. Scatter chopped fresh herbs on top then serve as-is or spoon on to an English muffin, toast or tortillas. Adding a few slices of avocado is a nice touch, too.

Steps:
- In a medium bowl, crumble the tofu and add nutritional yeast, turmeric, garlic powder, and soy sauce and stir to mix (mashing with a fork helps incorporate all the flavors into the tofu). Set aside.
- Add just enough of the broth (set the rest aside) to cover the bottom of a large skillet and heat for one minute over medium heat. Add the tofu mixture and peppers, onions, mushrooms. Cook for 5-8 minutes or until vegetables reach desired tenderness, adding more vegetable broth as needed. If using garbanzo bean flour, add in just at the end to thicken up any excess liquid and add some creaminess to the scramble.
