Scrambled Tofu with Nuttino Truffle Cheese
Ingredients
- 1 brown onion
- 1 block of soft tofu
- 4 mushrooms

- Season the Tofu: Sprinkle the turmeric powder and soy sauce onto the tofu and stir. If adding additional spices such as cumin powder, paprika, nutritional yeast, salt, and pepper, add them now to the mixture. Stir well to ensure the tofu is evenly coated with the spices.
- Cook: Cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tofu is heated through and slightly golden.
- Garnish and Serve: Remove the skillet from heat and add sliced truffle cheese on top of the scrambled tofu. Use fresh parsley or chives for a burst of color and flavor. Serve the scrambled tofu hot, on top of toasted sourdough, or as a filling for breakfast burritos or wraps.
