Scrambled Tofu with Garlic and Turmeric
Tofu is a low-fat protein source, and garlic and turmeric are antioxidant powerhouses, so this combination gives you a one-two punch to get you going in the morning. Serve with toasted whole wheat bread.
Makes 3–4 healthy servings
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons turmeric powder
1 pound soft tofu, drained well and lightly
crumbled
Salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
Heat the olive oil, add the garlic and turmeric, and cook until tender but not browned.
Add the tofu and stir to coat. Reduce heat and continue to cook for 4–5 minutes until heated through. Taste and adjust seasoning.
Chef’s Diet Options:
Add your favorite chopped herbs. I like cilantro, parsley, fennel tops, or basil. Add veggies. Leftovers or freshly chopped, the veggies add crunch and texture.
Add chilies. They kick up the heat as well as your metabolism.
Add cheese. Traditional, soy, or nut milk cheeses add that great stringy texture. Be sure to add cheeses just before serving, after removing from the heat.
