    Recipe Introduction



    As an alternative to scrambled eggs, this recipe can steal the show at brunch. If
    you'd like, add other vegetables (up to 2 cups total), such as shredded carrots,
    chopped red bell pepper, or sliced zucchini. In addition to the tofu, you can also
    add 1 or 2 eggs: Scramble the egg first until no visible liquid remains, remove
    it from the pan, and stir it in after the tofu mixture is cooked.


    List of Ingredients




    Scrambled Tofu

    Ingredients

    1 tbsp. olive oil

    1 c. sliced mushrooms

    ½ c. finely chopped green bell pepper

    2 green onions, finely chopped

    2 cloves garlic, minced

    1 ½ c. mashed silken firm tofu (12 ounces); (see Tip)

    3 plum tomatoes, cut into ½-inch cubes

    2 tbsp. soy sauce

    1 tbsp. minced fresh flat-leaf parsley

    1 tbsp. minced fresh basil, or ½ tsp. dried

    1 tbsp. minced fresh oregano, or ½ tsp. dried

    ½ tsp. freshly ground pepper, or to taste

    Salt to taste

    Freshly grated Parmesan cheese, sprigs of fresh parsley or basil for garnish


    Recipe



    Heat the oil in a medium-size skillet over medium heat. Add the mushrooms, bell
    pepper, scallions, and garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about
