I’m so excited to be back sharing my favourite recipes with you. It’s been a crazy few months, and whilst I’ve been eating and cooking non-stop I haven’t had the chance to focus back to where it all began, my blog!

 

I’ve written a life update which explains what I’ve been up to recently and what all the yummy food I’ve been making has been fuelling me to do. Move – Move – Move.

 

Now back to the point of this blog post, a new found breakfast obsession, my Tofu Scramble. A Tofu scramble was something I’d seen on endless Vegan menus, but never ordered until recently. I was not opposed to the idea, but didn’t think it sounded nearly as delicious as my regular farmers scramble. After enjoying and devouring the dish I ordered, I had to recreate it at home and share this oh -so-simple recipe with all of you. The tofu is spiced with turmeric and garlic, sautéed with tuscan kale, a smooth avocado-lemon mash, all in a meaty portobello mushroom cup. A truly diverse, and delicious breakfast.

The Ingredients

2 Portobello Mushrooms

8 ounces extra firm tofu

1/4 teaspoon turmeric

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon sea salt

Olive Oil

2 cups kale

handful of chopped parsley

1 avocado

Juice 1/2 lemon

 

 

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 190C/350F
  2. Place the portobello mushrooms on a roasting tray and drizzle with olive oil. Roast for 25 minutes.
  3. Pat tofu dry, wrap in a muslin or small absorbent towel and let any excess liquid drain.
  4. Mash the avocado with lemon juice and season with salt, set aside.
  5. Mash the tofu with a fork until crumbled into small pieces. Add in the turmeric, garlic powder and a seasoning of salt.
  6. Add a dash of olive oil to a pan and add in the tofu, sauté for around 8 minutes until tofu is starting to brown.  Add in the kale and parsley, continue to cook until wilted.
  7. Remove the portobello mushrooms from the oven. Compile by adding a good dollop of your mashed avocado, and spooning over your Tofu & Kale Scramble.
  8. Enjoy!
