Recipe: Tofu Scramble

This protein-packed tofu scramble is suitable for breakfast, lunch or dinner on the Attack phase or on any Pure Protein (PP) day.

The seasonings can really be adjusted to your tastes and some folks like to put in some tumeric so that it looks yellow like scrambled eggs.  I don't bother with the colouring because I like the pale beige mass you end up with.

I use organic tofu and I find it works a little better with

Ingredients:

1 package extra firm tofu, drained
2 - 4 tablespoons milk
1 tablespoon chopped green onions
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
Black pepper, tumeric, paprika, cayenne pepper or other herbs and spices (optional)
Cooking spray

Instructions:

Heat a deep frying pan lightly coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat.  Drain tofu and crumble into pan with your fingers.  Let tofu get lightly brown on the bottom, about two to three minutes.

Add in the green onions, salt, onion and garlic powder, and any other seasonings you decide on.  Stir and continue cooking tofu for four or five more minutes.  The bottom of the frying pan might get a layer of crusted on browned tofu but that's normal.

Push tofu to the side and add milk onto the pan's bottom.  Scrape with your cooking utensil to gather up some of the crusted layer of tofu.  Add more milk as required to scrape up all of the crust.

Continue cooking for an additional minute.  Take off heat.  Serve and enjoy!
