25 minGluten-Free

Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp Nutritional Yeast
  • 1 tsp Chili Powder
  • 1 tsp Ground Cumin
  • 1 tsp Black Salt
  • ¾ tsp Ground Turmeric
  • ¼ tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1 tbsp Olive Oil
  • 1 ½ cups Cremini Mushrooms
  • 1 whole Red Bell Pepper
  • ½ whole Yellow Onion
  • 2 cloves Garlic
  • 1 block Firm Tofu
  • 1 can (15 oz) Black Beans

Instructions

  1. In a small bowl, stir together the nutritional yeast, chili powder, ground cumin, black salt, turmeric, and garlic powder. Set the spice mix aside.
  2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms, red bell pepper, onion, and garlic. Sauté for about 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and just starting to brown.
  3. Use your hands to break the tofu into large chunks directly into the skillet, then use a spatula to break it into smaller, scramble-sized pieces.
  4. Add the black beans and sprinkle the spice mix over everything. Stir well to combine. Cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until heated through and the flavors meld.
  5. Season with salt and pepper to taste, then serve hot alongside toasted bread, avocado slices, or roasted potatoes.
