Tofu scramble is a delicious and versatile plant-based breakfast or brunch option. It's a great way to get your protein and vegetable intake in the morning. And it's super easy to make!

Ingredients* 1 block (14 ounces) firm or extra-firm tofu, drained and pressed
* 2 tablespoons olive oil
* 1/2 onion, chopped
* 1/2 green bell pepper, chopped
* 1/2 red bell pepper, chopped
* 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
* 1 teaspoon chili powder
* 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
* 1/4 teaspoon salt
* 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
* 1/4 cup water

Instructions1. Crumble the tofu into a large skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil, onion, bell peppers, cilantro, chili powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Cook, stirring frequently, for 10-15 minutes, or until the vegetables are softened and the tofu is golden brown.
2. Add the water and cook for an additional 5 minutes, or until the tofu has absorbed the liquid and is heated through.
3. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings.

Tips* For a vegan version of this recipe, use plant-based olive oil and water.
* To add more flavor to your tofu scramble, try using different spices or herbs. Some good options include smoked paprika, turmeric, or oregano.
* If you don't have a tofu press, you can wrap the tofu in a clean dish towel and place it on a plate. Weigh it down with another plate or a heavy can for 30 minutes to remove excess water.
* Tofu scramble is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. Feel free to add any vegetables you have on hand, such as spinach, mushrooms, or tomatoes.
* You can also add other ingredients to your tofu scramble, such as cheese, cooked sausage, or chopped nuts.
