Tofu Scramble and Roasted Potatoes
Absolutely love a good veggie and tofu scramble! I enjoy making this on the weekend for brunch. There are also endless options to a tofu scramble. Feel free to explore with different variations of vegetables. You can mix it up by switching out the vegetables and even the spices. Another option I love is spinach, mushroom and caramelized onion.
Yields: 3-4 Servings
Ingredients:
For the scramble:
1 tbsp of oil (olive or coconut)
1/2 half onion, diced
2 garlic cloves, diced
1 block of firm tofu , crumble with hands
1 red pepper, long thin slices
spinach, large bunch
1/4 jalepeno, small dice
2 tbsp of tamari
1/2 tsp of turmeric
1/2 tsp of curry powder
salt
pepper
cilantro, diced
green onion, diced
1 avocado (1/4 for each serving)
tortilas of choice (optional)
lime, cut into little wedges
For the roasted potatoes:
2 medium yellow potatoes, diced into medium sized squares
1 tbsp olive oil
1/2 tsp of paprika
1/2 tsp of cumin
salt
pepper
Directions:
1) Preheat oven to 400F
2) Add diced potato, olive oil, paprika, cumin, salt and pepper to a bowl and mix well. Place on baking tray with parchment paper and when the oven is heated, cook in oven for 15-20 minutes.
3) Once the potatoes are in the oven. Bring a sauce pan to medium heat, add oil and then onions. Cook onions until translucent and then add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the red pepper and saute till tender.
4) Add the spices, turmeric, cumin, salt and pepper to the pan. Then add the crumbled tofu and tamari. Cook for 5 minutes. Add spinach and let it wilt.
5) Once the potatoes are done- ff you are eating with a tortilla, add it to the oven to toast.
6) Serve with a portion of the scramble, roasted potatoes, tortilla, quarter avocado, lime (I like to squeeze it on top right before eating), diced cilantro and diced green onion.
