Zubereitung von Scrambled Tofu

**Spice Blend:** In a small bowl, combine 1 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme, 1/4 teaspoon onion powder, and a pinch of cayenne pepper (optional). Set aside.
**Sauté Aromatics:** Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1/2 cup chopped onion and sauté for 3 minutes, until softened.
**Add Mushrooms:** Add 1 cup sliced mushrooms and sauté for 5 minutes.
**Garlic & Spices:** Add 2 cloves minced garlic and sauté for 2 minutes. Stir in the spice blend and cook for 15 seconds.
**Deglaze the Pan:** Add 1/4 cup water to the pan, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom.
**Crumble Tofu:** Crumble 14 ounces extra-firm tofu into large chunks directly into the pan. Gently mix to combine, being careful not to over-crush.
**Cook the Tofu:** Cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally with a lifting motion to maintain chunky texture. Add splashes of water as needed to prevent sticking. Reduce heat if necessary.
**Lemon & Nutritional Yeast:** Stir in 2 tablespoons lemon juice and 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast (optional). If the mixture is sticking, add more water.
**Add Carrot:** Grate 1/2 cup carrot into the tofu mixture and gently fold in.
**Serve:** Serve immediately with your favorite toppings! Suggestions include guacamole, salsa, potatoes, toast, and tempeh bacon.
**Variations:** Try the Tofu Rancheros (add 1 cup salsa, cook 1 minute more) or the Asian-Style Scrambled Tofu (add 2 tbsp minced ginger with garlic, use peanut oil, substitute shiitake mushrooms, omit thyme and nutritional yeast, add 1 cup thinly sliced scallions at the end).
