Instructions

1Wrap the tofu in paper towels and weigh it down for 5–10 minutes to press out as much water as possible. This will prevent the dish from becoming "watery".
2Heat olive oil in a pan. Add the onion and bell pepper and sauté over medium heat for about 5–7 minutes, until the pepper softens and the onion becomes translucent.
3Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix the nutritional yeast, turmeric, and smoked paprika with two tablespoons of water to make a paste.
4Crumble the tofu with your hands directly into the pan with the vegetables. The pieces should be of varying sizes to mimic the texture of scrambled eggs.
5Add the prepared spice paste and garlic. Mix everything well so the tofu turns an even golden yellow. Cook for another 5 minutes to let the flavors combine and the excess liquid evaporate.
6Just before finishing, stir the baby spinach into the pan. Stir only until the spinach wilts (about 1 minute).
7Season with pepper and, if needed, plain salt. Serve immediately, preferably with a slice of whole-grain bread or avocado.
