Tofu Scramble Quinoa Bowls

Servings 4

Ingredients

  • 1 cup quinoa
  • 12 oz block extra-firm tofu
  • 2 tsp grapeseed or avocado oil
  • 1 cup chopped yellow onion
  • 2 garlic cloves peeled and minced
  • 1 chopped yellow or orange bell pepper
  • 3 Tbsp nutritional yeast
  • 3/4 tsp turmeric
  • 3/4 tsp cumin powder
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne powder
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 1/2 cups cooked or canned black or pinto beans
  • 4 cups sliced Swiss chard
  • 1/2 cup chopped cilantro
  • 1 lime
  • 1 avocado peeled and cubed
  • 1/3 cup Pumpkin seeds
  • 1 cup salsa of choice

Instructions

  • In medium saucepan, place 1 3/4 cups water and quinoa. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, covered, until water has absorbed and quinoa is tender, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat, let rest 5 minutes, then fluff quinoa with fork.
  • Using large holes of box grater, grate tofu into pebble-sized pieces—or finely chop with knife.
  • In large skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add onion and cook 5 minutes, stirring often. Add garlic and bell pepper; heat 3 minutes. Stir in nutritional yeast, turmeric, cumin, cayenne, salt, and pepper; heat 30 seconds. Add tofu to skillet and cook 3 minutes, stirring often. Stir in beans and Swiss chard; heat until chard is wilted. Stir in cilantro.
  • Divide quinoa among serving bowls and top with tofu mixture. Squirt on lime juice. Top with avocado, pumpkin seeds, and salsa.
