CHORIZO KALE TOFU SCRAMBLE
Turmeric and black pepper have each been associated with several health benefits. Combined, however, the health-promoting properties of these two ingredients are amplified exponentially. Today’s breakfast recipe keeps these two at the center of this chorizo kale tofu scramble recipe…
INGREDIENTS:
Serving Size: 4
Time Duration: 30 min
Plant Based, Soy, Vegan
2 Extra Firm Tofu I personally love using @morinutofu
W/ Black Pepper
Turmeric
2 Cups Green Kale
2 Soy Chorizo
INSTRUCTIONS:
To prepare this dish you will start by heating up your skillet and adding in about 2 Tbsp worth of oil. For this recipe I utilized canola oil but you could also use your preferred oil such as avocado , olive oil or vegetable. Once you have the skillet warmed up add in the 2 Extra Firm Tofu and add salt, pepper, and tumeric to the tofu. Keep your heat on a medium heat and start to break up the tofu in your skillet.
As you start to break up the tofu you are going to then clean and wash of 2 cups worth of kale and chop it up. This recipe yields enough for 4 individuals if you will be feeding more just double the recipe. Once you are done chopping up the kale you are going to add it to the skillet with the tofu. Next you want to get a second skillet warm it up and then you will add about 1 Tbsp work of oil . Grab your soy chorizo of choice and then you will cook this on a low-medium setting . Cook until it’s thoroughly cooked. Personally , love to get it nice and brown just like what’s pictured above. To get this look I cook on the low-medium setting for about 5 minutes then increase the heat to medium-high for 2-3 minutes . This breakfast meal will be packed with flavor and nutrients so I hope that you enjoy!
Why do you need black pepper with turmeric?
To put it simply, turmeric contains a compound called curcumin, which is responsible for the majority of its powerful health benefits. Likewise, black pepper also contains an alkaloid known as piperine, which has also been shown to have medicinal properties that are thought to be therapeutic in the treatment of many conditions. Such as fighting inflammation, reducing depression , may prevent or slow down blood clots and assist in your skin appearance.
