Ingredients

1 block (14 oz) firm tofu, drained and crumbled

½ cup bell pepper, diced

½ cup onion, diced

1 cup spinach, chopped

1 tsp turmeric powder

Salt and pepper to taste

Olive oil for cooking


Instructions

  • In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add onion and bell pepper, cooking until softened, about 3-5 minutes.

  • Add the crumbled tofu, turmeric, salt, and pepper to the skillet. Stir well to combine.

  • Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until heated through and slightly golden.

  • Stir in the spinach and cook until wilted, about 1-2 minutes.

  • Serve warm with your choice of sides or toppings.

Notes

To make this dish spicier, add chili flakes, diced jalapeños, or hot sauce while cooking.

For a cheesy flavor, mix in nutritional yeast.

If you like extra protein, try adding crumbled vegan sausage or tempeh.

Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days and reheat in a skillet or microwave.

You can freeze leftovers, but the texture may change slightly upon reheating.
