Scrambled Tofu with Zucchini



Scrambled tofu* with zucchini, onions, tomatoes, and cilantro, served with oven-roasted potatoes and oven-roasted red bell pepper.

  • 3-4 small bunches of cilantro (minced)

  3. Crumble tofu into spices, and reserve.
  4. Sauté onion and garlic, about 5 minutes.
  5. Add zucchini.

  7. Add the bowl of crumbled tofu and spices to zucchini and onions — cover about 5 minutes.
  8. Once mixture is hot, stir in cilantro.
  9. Stir in tomato; cover over low heat until hot.
