Description

A delicious and easy vegan tofu omelette that’s fluffy, satisfying, and perfect for any morning.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 block firm or extra-firm tofu, drained and crumbled
  • 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 cup diced vegetables (bell peppers, onions, mushrooms)
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil or vegan butter
  • Fresh herbs (parsley or chives), for garnish

Instructions

  1. Drain tofu and press gently with a clean kitchen towel to remove excess moisture, then crumble it into a bowl.
  2. Sprinkle turmeric, garlic powder, and nutritional yeast over the crumbled tofu; mix well and set aside.
  3. Heat olive oil or vegan butter in a skillet over medium heat, then sauté diced vegetables until tender.
  4. Lower heat and add crumbled tofu mixture to the veggies, folding gently to combine.
  5. Cook for about 4-5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
  6. Push the mixture down to cook the bottom until lightly golden or fold for a traditional omelette shape.
  7. Finish cooking for another 2-3 minutes to brown the tofu slightly, then garnish with fresh herbs.
  8. Serve with whole-grain toast or salad, and enjoy!
