• 0.25 tsp Black pepper
• 1 cup Spinach, chopped
• 0.5 cup Cherry tomatoes, halved

Directions

Step 1

Drain the tofu and press it between two plates or with a tofu press for 5-10 minutes to remove excess water.

Step 2

Heat olive oil in a large non-stick pan over medium heat.

Step 3

Crumble the tofu into small, bite-sized pieces with your hands or a fork and add it to the pan.

Step 4

Sprinkle turmeric powder, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, nutritional yeast, salt, and black pepper over the tofu.

Step 5

Stir everything well to evenly coat the tofu in the spices, and cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 6

Add the chopped spinach and halved cherry tomatoes to the pan.

Step 7

Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, until the spinach wilts and the tomatoes soften slightly.

Step 8

Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Serve warm and enjoy!
