Tofu Scramble Recipe

(Pictured here is tofu scramble made with peppers and onions along with buckwheat pancakes and vegetarian sausage.)

Ingredients
  • block of Firm Tofu
  • Veggies of choosing (peppers, onions, zucchini, what ever you've got in the frig)
  • 1/2 tsp. of tumeric
  • 1 tbsp. oil
  • 1 tsp. garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp. soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp. nutritional yeast (from health food store or Whole Foods)
  • parsley
Directions
  1. Start by draining the tofu of all its water. I like to also use a towel and some pressure to dry it out. Remove as much water as possible. This will make the tofu more flavorful.
  2. Next Saute your onions first, so that they get some caramelization happening.
  3. Cut the tofu into 1" squares and crumble into the pan.
  4. Throw the tofu into the pan for about ten min. or so. You want the tofu to brown and dry up a bit.
  5. Sauce time. Add the rest of the ingredients above and your other veggies if any.
  6. Cook a few more minutes and then enjoy!

Summer Time Recipe

Here's a really great recipe for Gazpacho that I just tried out. It's from the cookbook "Sunfood Cuisine". It's great for a hot day and it's a totally raw dish, which means it's good for you too. Enjoy!

Ultimate Gazpacho
2 cups tomato
1 cup cucumber
1/4 cup olive oil
1/3 cup lemon juice
1/2 tsp. sea salt
1/2 to 1 tsp. jalapeƱo pepper, minced
1 garlic clove

Blend. Place in a bowl.

Add:
2 cups tomatoes, chopped
2/3 cup cucumber, chopped
1/2 cup red bell pepper
1/4 cup onion, chopped
1/2 cup of cilantro or parsley, chopped

And that should do it. Enjoy!
