Simple Whole Food Ingredients
In this recipe, tofu is crumbled and combined with spinach, mushrooms, and spices to create delicious vegan scrambled eggs.
Here is everything you’ll need:
- tofu – regular firm tofu works for this recipe
- mushrooms – I used white mushrooms, cremini or portobello will also work
- spinach – fresh spinach works best, chop it if it has large leaves
- green onions – add flavor and freshness
- nutritional yeast – adds a savory, cheesy flavor
- spices – you’ll need turmeric, paprika, and salt (you can also use Kala Namak – black Himalayan salt, it gives the tofu scramble the sulfur smell eggs have.)
- pumpkin seeds – blended with some water they improve the texture of the vegan eggs, making them more creamy and similar to real scrambled eggs.
