Scrambled tofu

Scrambled tofu is one of my favorite lunch options. It’s easy to make, it is always an option (I always have a pack of tofu in the fridge, do you?), it is healthy, it is rich in protein, and, last but not least, it is simply delicious!

I use kala namak salt in this recipe. Kala namak is a rock salt from India with a prominent sulphury smell which resembles the smell of eggs. Feel free to substitute it with your regular salt.

The calculated nutrition value is for scrambled tofu only (excluding avocado and bread).
