- 14 ounces extra firm tofu drained and pressed for 30 minutes
- 2 tablespoon nutritional yeast

Prep Veggies
Meanwhile, cut up your pepper, onion, and tomato. In a large pan add some oil and sauté your peppers and onions for 4-5 minutes until onion becomes translucent.
Add in chopped tomatoes and spinach. Cook for another few minutes until spinach is cooked down.
Prepare Tofu with Spices
Once tofu is pressed, crumble it with your hands into a bowl. Mix in curry powder, turmeric, salt, black salt, pepper, and nutritional yeast.
Add the tofu mixture to veggies and cook, stirring occasionally, until the tofu is warm, golden and crispy (2-3 minutes).
Garnish the curry tofu scramble with chopped cilantro and serve hot with your choice of crispy potatoes, grain or bread. Enjoy!
How to Press Tofu: just get a dishcloth and wrap it around your block of tofu. Place on a plate and then a cutting board (or something flat) on top of the tofu. Then find something heavy (such as a 3-4 cans or a large book) and place on top of the cutting board. Make sure it’s stable. (You can also buy a TOFU PRESS)
