Instructions

Drain out as much water as possible from the tofu and crumble it with your fingers or use a fork and set aside.
Heat a pan or skillet to medium-high heat and sauté onion, bell peppers, and Jalapeno peppers for about 2 to 3 minutes.
Stir in the tofu, turmeric, salt, pepper, and nutritional yeast (if using) Use a wooden spoon or spatula to mix and crumble the tofu while cooking it and leave to cook for about 5 to 8 minutes or until tofu is well heated through and has absorbed all the flavors.

Notes

Be careful not to overcook tofu, as it will dry out and not taste very good. It’s best to have your scrambled tofu cooked to a moist, light, and fluffy texture just like scrambled eggs.
