Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a standard muffin tin with olive oil or cooking spray.
Drain the tofu and press it to remove excess water. Crumble it into a blender or food processor.
Add chickpea flour, almond milk, nutritional yeast, turmeric, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper to the blender.
Blend the mixture until it’s smooth and creamy. Stop to scrape down the sides, if necessary.
In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the red bell pepper, mushrooms, and spinach for 3-5 minutes, until the vegetables soften and the spinach wilts.
Stir the sautéed vegetables and chopped green onions into the tofu mixture until evenly combined.
Spoon the mixture evenly into the prepared muffin tin, filling each cup to the top.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the tops are firm and lightly golden.
Allow the mini omelets to cool in the muffin tin for 5 minutes before carefully removing them.
Serve warm or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Reheat as needed before serving.
