tofu use thanks - Repost of Scrambled Tofu Eggs

[Guest guest]

You're welcome. By the way there are lots of Tofu recipes in the files. They

are in the Substitutes for meat folder, then click on Soy based non-meat

products and then the Tofu recipe sub folder within that .

 

Look for Judy's Tofu recipes for a great Tofu Mayonaise(marvi-whip) recipe,

Tofu Pumpkin Pie, and Not-cotta Filling.

 

Here is a great Scrambled Tofu " Eggs " Recipe that I enjoy. It is in the

Breakfast Recipes File here on our website. We made it at our church summer

camp last summer and it was a hit with the vegans and anyone that tried it. I

loved it. I have made " egg-salad " with the Scrambled Tofu Eggs after it was

cooked and cooled. I mix it with Veganaise or the Tofu Mayo recipe mentioned

above(Marvi-Whip) along with some diced celery. It is good.

 

Scrambled Tofu Eggs

 

1 lb. Tofu, water packed - Extra Firm - drain and rinse or Mori-Nu Extra Firm

1/2 c. Onions, chopped

1/2 c. Mushrooms, chopped

1/4 c. Bell Pepper Chopped

2 T. Green Onions, sliced

1 t. Parsley, fresh or dried

1 t. Chives, fresh and dried

1 T. Olive Oil

2 t. " Chicken Seasoning " See Below

1 T. Nutritional Yeast Flakes

1/2 t.. Salt

1/2 t. Onion Powder

1/2 t. Garlic Powder

1/8 t. Turmeric(for color)

 

Crumble the Tofu into small chunks. Set aside. In a large skillet, saute

the fresh veggies in oil until soft. Add tofu to skillet. Combine the

spices and sprinkle evenly over tofu. Mix well. Cook over med. heat until

dry, about 10-15 min. Another way to prepare this is, to slice the tofu

into small 1/4 inch slices and cover with the seasoning, but no veggies.

Brown in skillet with the oil.

 

Eggless Egg Salad Sandwich Filling

 

Prepare the Scrambled Tofu Eggs as above and let cool completely. Stir in

Veganaise. Spread on bread to make a Sandwich.

 

 

" Chicken Seasoning "

1 1/3 c. Nutrititional Yeast Flakes

3 T. Onion Powder

2 1/2 t. Garlic Powder

2 1/2 t. Salt

2 T. Parsley

1/2 t. Celery Salt

2 T. Italian Seasoning

1 t. Tumeric

 

Mix together and store in a ziplock bag for use in recipes that call for

Chicken Seasoning. It is good in Soups, breading meal and for use in making

Scrambled Egg Tofu.

tofu use thanks

 

 

I appreciate the link to the tofu book, Maureen. Thanks to Judy and

Donna for your thoughts too.

 

I have since ordered a few tofu books.

 

Yesterday I mixed firm tofu and Mori Nu silk together to make coffee

cream for my husband. It ended up more like nice whipped cream for

dessert topping. It was good in oatmeal this AM.

 

I have another recipe to mix half soy milk and have silk tofu together

for half an half substitution, so will have to try that next.

 

I want to learn how to use tofu as a sub for scrambled eggs, etc., so

thse cookbooks should help.

 

Donna, your berry dessert is what gave me consideration for using my

butterscotch pudding. I'll wait til I get the cookbooks and see what

options I can come up with, will let you know if it's out of the

ordinary.
