Directions
Spray a skillet generously with olive oil and warm it over medium heat. Crumble the tofu into bite-sized pieces with your hands and add it to the pan. Let it cook for about 4 minutes, stirring occasionally. Next, sprinkle in the nutritional yeast, salt, garlic powder, and turmeric. Stir everything together, breaking up the tofu a bit more with your spatula until the spices are well mixed in—this should take about a minute. Pour in the almond milk and cook until it’s mostly absorbed, which usually takes around 2 minutes. Give it a final taste and add more salt and pepper if needed. Serve it up while it’s nice and warm!
