Oil-Free Tofu Scramble with Spinach

Love scrambled eggs but want to switch over to a plant-based diet? This recipe for tofu scramble with spinach is a great compromise.

What I love best about tofu scramble is the almost endless combinations of ingredients you can use in making it. Don’t like spinach? Substitute your favorite greens or simply leave it out. Love zucchini? Dice a small one and add it in once the tofu cooks for about 10 minutes.

Have fun choosing your favorite spices to add to your version. I’ve been known to add oregano and basil for a fresh flavor or smoked paprika for a heartier taste.
