Scrambled Tofu

Image
By
Tofu is one ingredient I always like to have on hand! It's very versatile and extremely nutritious. It's a satisfying food that takes on different flavors and a variety of textures. This simple, yet oh-so-yummy, scrambled tofu recipe is one of my favorite ways to eat it.


Ingredients:
1 tbsp oil
1 small onion, diced small (optional)
1 can (4oz) mushroom pieces (optional)
1 package (16 oz) water-packed tofu, firm or extra firm, drained
1 1/2 to 2 tbsp “chicken style seasoning”

Instructions:
Drain excess water from tofu. Heat oil in a large skillet over
medium heat. Add onions and mushroom and saute for 2
minutes. Crumble tofu into pan with your fingers or use a spatula
to break it up in the pan. Cook until tofu is browned and slightly
dry, stirring occasionally. This could be from 10-20 minutes,
depending on desired texture. The longer the tofu cooks, the
firmer the tofu will be. Add “chicken-style seasoning” after about
5 minutes after you add the tofu.

Optional: can add other veggies like spinach, bell pepper, olives, garlic, or tomatoes.

Potato Carrot Cheese

By
Everyone needs to try this recipe.  I could sit and dip chips in this cheese at every meal, I think.  I like that it has lots of fiber and nutrients.  It's a little cheaper than some recipes because the base is made from potatoes and carrots.  It is bursting with flavor! Ingredients: 2 C cooked potatoes 1 C cooked carrots 1/2 C nutritional yeast, scant 1/2 C water (use from cooked potatoes and carrots) 1/3 C light olive oil 1 Tbsp lemon juice 2 tsp salt 1/2 tsp chicken-style seasoning 1/4 tsp garlic powder 1/4 tsp onion powder 2 oz pimientos Instructions: Put all ingredients into a blender and blend until smooth and creamy.   Serve with chips, on broccoli, as macaroni and cheese, on lasagna.  This is so very yummy!
