Tofu Scramble

I thought this was pretty good. It's the perfect breakfast with a piece of toast and strawberry jam... but, of course, I had it for dinner. Why? Because breakfast is the best meal of the day! Seriously, if I could, I would eat breakfast for every meal.

Anyway, on to the recipe. It's easily doubled if you want to make more.

Scramble

1/2 firm or extra firm tofu, pressed and drained
1 small onion, chopped
2 mushrooms (add more of less depending on what you like), sliced
2 cloves of garlic
1/8 cup nutritional yeast
1 small carrot, grated
juice of 1/2 a lime
1 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp paprika
1/4 tsp tumeric (gives it a golden color)
salt, optional

Sauté the onions in water (or oil if you prefer) until soft. Add the mushrooms and sauté for about five minutes, and then stir in the spices, garlic, and 1/4 cup of water. Crumble the tofu in and coat with the spice and onion mixture (do not smash the tofu! Just stir it around). Cook for about fifteen minutes over medium heat, adding more water when necessary. Pour in the lime juice, nutritional yeast, and stir. Finally, fold in the grated carrot and serve!
