Tofu Scramble (2-cup serving)

1 tablespoon olive oil
¼ teaspoon garlic, chopped
¼ cup chopped onion, diced
¼ cup mushrooms, sliced
1 package firm tofu, drained & mashed
½ red pepper, sliced
½ tomato, diced
1 green onion, sliced
½ cup cheddar or other cheese, grated
Salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon basil or other fresh herb,
chopped (optional)

Tofu is one of the plant foods
that is highest in protein. A single
½ cup serving has 10 grams of
protein! Most tofu is also
fortified with calcium.

In a non-stick pan heat oil. Sauté onion &
garlic until softened, then add mushrooms.
Add tofu when mushrooms are ¾ done.
Sauté over medium high heat for about 5
minutes while stirring. Add red peppers, salt
and pepper halfway through cooking time.
Finish scramble by adding basil and tomato.
Mix, sprinkle with cheese and green onion
and cover with lid until cheese melts. Yum.
