Description

A delightful vegan tofu omelette that’s fluffy, nutritious, and perfect for busy mornings. Customize with your favorite vegetables and herbs!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 block silken tofu
  • 1/2 teaspoon turmeric
  • 1/4 cup nutritional yeast
  • 1 cup fresh spinach
  • 1 cup mushrooms, chopped
  • 1/2 bell pepper, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Fresh herbs (like chives or parsley) for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the tofu: Drain the silken tofu thoroughly and place it in a mixing bowl. Use a fork to blend it until smooth and fluffy.
  2. Season: Mix in the turmeric, nutritional yeast, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
  3. Sauté the vegetables: In a skillet set over medium heat, add a splash of olive oil. Once hot, sauté finely chopped onions and garlic until translucent. Add in the mushrooms and sauté until golden. Toss in spinach and cook until just wilted.
  4. Cook the omelette: Pour the tofu mixture over the sautéed vegetables. Spread it out evenly in the skillet and reduce the heat to medium-low. Cover and cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the edges begin to set.
  5. Flip and serve: Carefully flip the omelette over to cook the other side for a few minutes. Once it’s golden brown, slide it onto a plate and garnish with fresh herbs.

Notes

Tip: If flipping seems daunting, you can fold the omelette in half before serving.
