Tofu Scramble Seasoning Blend

Written by on in Recipes

Mix up this seasoning blend so you don’t have to pull out tons of spice jars every time you want tofu scramble. As written this recipe will make about 4 batches of tofu scramble. Use about 3 tablespoons of the mix per one package of tofu. You could easily double or triple the recipe if you want a bigger supply.

For this amount, you’ll need about an 8 ounce jar. Simply add all the ingredients, secure the lid, and shake to combine the spices. I prefer to store this in the refrigerator to prolong the life of the spices, but you could store it in a cool pantry.

You can also add salt to the blend, but I prefer to salt to taste when I’m cooking. For the scramble, start by sautéing whatever vegetables you have on hand. I like to use onions, garlic, peppers, and greens. But any veggies are great. I’ve done cabbage, broccoli, tomatoes, you name it! Then add your spices, and crumble up a block of tofu into the skillet. Mix and heat everything through and you’re all set!

Tofu scramble is great for any meal. Of course it would work for breakfast, but I love it for lunch or dinner too!

Stay tuned for my next post about my first experiences with some new-to-me soy products. I’ll include a little more info on tofu scramble. But for now enjoy these examples of a couple different ways to use this seasoning blend. And be sure to check out my Go-To Oatmeal spice blend for another flavor shortcut.
