🍽 Ingredients
📖 Instructions
- Crumble the tofu into a large bowl. I like to use my hands for this—it's strangely satisfying!
- Grate the carrots and zucchini. If you're feeling lazy (like me sometimes!), just use a box grater. It's all good.
- Add the nutritional yeast, garlic powder, onion powder, turmeric, salt, and black pepper to the bowl with the crumbled tofu. Mix everything together until the tofu is evenly coated.
- Heat a large skillet or frying pan over medium heat. Add a tablespoon of olive oil or your preferred cooking oil. Let it heat up for a minute.
- Add the tofu mixture to the heated skillet. Spread it out evenly. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 10-15 minutes, or until the tofu is golden brown and crispy. Don't be afraid to get a little bit crispy on the edges.
- Stir in the grated carrots and zucchini during the last 5 minutes of cooking. These will cook pretty quickly, so don't overcook them. They should still have a little bit of bite.
- Once the tofu and vegetables are cooked, remove the pan from the heat. Sprinkle generously with vegan parmesan cheese. The more, the merrier!
- Serve immediately and enjoy! Pair it with some toast or a side salad for a complete and satisfying meal. Or just eat it straight up--I won't judge!
📝 Notes
- For a creamier scramble, add a splash of plant-based milk or cream at the end.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices and seasonings to personalize your scramble!
