Ingredients
- 14 oz silken tofu
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 0.5 medium white onion
- 1 tsp garlic-infused oil
- 1 tsp fresh ginger
- 1 tsp ground turmeric
- 0.5 tsp ground cumin
- 0.5 tsp smoked paprika
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
- 0.5 medium red bell pepper
- 1 cup broccoli florets
- 1 cup cauliflower florets
- 2 cup baby spinach leaves
- 1 cup cremini mushrooms
- 2 green onions
- 2 tbsp nutritional yeast
- 0.25 cup cilantro
- 2 lemon wedges
Instructions
- 1Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Sauté diced white onion, red bell pepper, broccoli florets, and cauliflower florets for 5-7 minutes until slightly tender. Add garlic-infused oil and ginger, cooking for another minute.
- 2Crumble the pressed silken tofu directly into the skillet. Stir in turmeric, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, black pepper, and nutritional yeast. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 8-10 minutes, allowing the tofu to brown slightly and absorb the flavors.
- 3Add sliced cremini mushrooms and baby spinach leaves to the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring until the spinach is wilted and mushrooms are tender.
- 4Garnish with fresh cilantro and sliced green onions. Serve hot with lemon wedges for a bright finish.
