TOFU GREEN BEAN BREAKFAST SCRAMBLE

Repeat after me: Don't scramble your eggs, scramble your tofu! This splendid breakfast dish is one of my all-time favorite ways to eat tofu. Oh, what's that? You hate tofu? This is the dish that has converted all of my tofu-skeptic friends. It's based on a classic Northern Indian breakfast my dad remembers from his childhood, originally involving crumbled paneer sauteed with spices and green beans and usually eaten atop toast. When my parents immigrated to America and my dad was craving this dish, tofu was my mom's workaround after not being able to find paneer anywhere. What she ended up discovering was how wonderfully light and bouncy the crumbled tofu gets, and how nicely that complements the crunch of the green beans. This dish is essentially a doppelganger for scrambled eggs, thanks to the yellow color of the turmeric and the vaguely eggy, umami-like taste of the chaat masala. But tofu does a far superior job than eggs at really absorbing the flavor of the spices-plus, it's a lot harder to overcook tofu.

Steps:

  • Warm the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the cumin seeds and cook until they turn a medium shade of brown, about 1 minute max. Swirl the turmeric into the oil, then add the green beans, salt and chile. Reduce the heat to low, cover and cook until the green beans are just barely soft (they should still retain a bit of firmness), 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Add the crumbled tofu and mix well, then increase the heat to medium and cook, uncovered, until the tofu has softened slightly and turned bright yellow from the turmeric, 3 to 4 minutes.
  • Remove the skillet from the heat and mix in the lime juice and chaat masala. Taste and adjust the lime juice, chaat masala and salt before serving if needed.

1 tablespoon olive oil
2 teaspoons cumin seeds
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/2 pound fresh green beans, ends trimmed, cut into 1-inch pieces, or frozen cut green beans (about 2 cups)
1 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more if needed
1 small Indian green chile or serrano chile, finely chopped
One 14-ounce package firm tofu, drained and crumbled into small pieces (think scrambled eggs for texture)
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice (from about half a lime), plus more if needed
2 teaspoons chaat masala, plus more if needed

TOFU SCRAMBLE WRAPS

Let's be honest, we all loved grilled tortillas, and I honestly feel like this is the best breakfast I've eaten in my entire 24 years of life. Even if you aren't vegan, or vegetarian even, the flavors that pop out of this sandwich will make you fall in love with breakfast all over again. Fluffy tofu, sweet potatoes, creamy avocado, and slightly spicy green chili tops it all off. You won't want to pass on breakfast this morning. Top with green chili sauce.

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a baking tray with parchment paper or a silicone liner (such as Silpat®).
  • Combine sweet potatoes, onion, bell pepper, lime juice, coconut aminos, garlic powder, and pepper for potatoes in a medium bowl, stirring so that everything is evenly coated. Transfer to the prepared baking tray.
  • Cook in the preheated oven until crisp and tender, 30 to 40 minutes, stirring halfway through cooking time.
  • While the potatoes are cooking, crumble the tofu into a large, nonstick pan. Add nutritional yeast, coconut aminos, garlic powder, pepper, and black salt. Cook over low heat, adding 1 tablespoon of water at a time if the tofu starts to stick, for 10 minutes. Add seitan and tomato, and cook until everything is warmed through, about 20 minutes.
  • Place a tortilla on a flat surface. Place some potatoes, avocado, and tofu scramble on the tortilla. Start at the bottom and fold the tortilla edge up and over the center into a wrap. Repeat to form remaining wraps.
  • Heat a flat-bottomed, cast iron pan over medium heat. Place the wraps in the hot pan, folded-side down. Cook until golden brown and sealed, about 4 minutes.
