Here is a super easy vegan scrambled tofu recipe - it's sort of my basic tofu scramble recipe that I then change up to create different vegan scrambles. What you ...
1 |
block firm tofu (drained well) |
3 |
tablespoons vegetable oil |
2 |
|
1/2 to 1 |
tablespoons chopped onion |
½ |
teaspoons turmeric |
½ |
teaspoons fresh minced garlic |
2 |
tablespoons vegan bacon bits (optional) |
chopped green onion (optional) |
Step 1 |
Combine vegetable oil, Bragg’s (or tamari, or soy sauce), turmeric, onion and garlic in a skillet and heat on medium, while cutting the tofu into small pieces. Lower the temp of the burner a bit and add the tofu to the mixture in the skillet. As the tofu cooks, mash it up and make sure that the tofu and seasoning mixture are mixed well. |
Step 2 |
If you want to include vegan bacon bits, they can be added as a topping after or folded into the mix towards the end of cooking. Cooking them in the scrambled tofu for a few minutes will soften them, which I like better. |

I use a potato masher to mash the tofu into a more scrambled egg-like texture. Topping the scrambled tofu with green onion adds a crisp, fresh flavor. This is a very simple recipe that is quick and de-lish. I generally serve this with GimmeLean sausage, or Fakin’ Bacon, and toast.

This recipe is a great base recipe that also can stand on its own! I usually add zucchini or chopped bell pepper to my tofu scrambles. Fresh or frozen spinach is also really good. Saute the veggies for a bit before adding the tofu and voila! a delicious and nutritious breakfast, lunch or dinner.
