Ingredients

  • 1 block firm tofu
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 3 tbsp nutritional yeast
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp turmeric
  • 1/4 tsp onion powder
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper plus more to taste
  • chives for garnish

Instructions

  • Use a few paper towels or a dish towel to press some of the liquid out of the tofu. Do this for 1 minute or so, then transfer the tofu to a large skillet, along with the olive oil.
  • Heat oil over medium heat, then use a wooden spoon to break up the tofu until it resembles the texture of scrambled eggs.
  • Sprinkle the remaining ingredients over top, stirring so that the tofu is completely coated. Cook the tofu for 5-10 minutes, then enjoy immediately.
