You don\u2019t have to be a vegan<\/a> to love tofu scramble. This protein-rich <\/a>meal isn\u2019t just an alternative to scrambled eggs<\/a>, but a delicious and healthy dish in its own right. Seasoned tofu crumbles are speckled with colorful vegetables and tossed in turmeric, which imparts a bright yellow tone and warm, peppery flavor \u2014 plus many anti-inflammatory <\/a>benefits, too. The recipe also calls for nutty nutritional yeast, which is a good source of protein and B-complex vitamins<\/a> for high energy. Enjoy this dish, morning, noon or night.<\/p>\n
