Prep Time: 10 mins or overnight | Cook Time: 10 mins | Serves: 4

Ingredients  

• 14 oz extra-firm tofu 

• ¼ c kalamata olives 

• 1 roasted red pepper 

• 2 Tbsp lemon juice 

• 2 Tbsp nutritional yeast flakes 

• ½ tsp dried thyme 

• 2 Tbsp finely chopped fresh basil leaves 

• 2 cloves garlic 

• ¼ tsp turmeric 

• ¼ tsp crushed red pepper flakes, optional 

• ¼ tsp salt 

• black pepper to taste 

• 1 Tbsp olive oil 

Directions

1. Crumble tofu into a mixing bowl. Mash until it is crumbly and in pea-sized pieces. 

2. Add remainder of ingredients, except for oil, and mix well.

3. Cover and refrigerate overnight or continue with the rest of the recipe right away. 

4. In the morning, preheat pan over medium-high heat with oil. Cook tofu for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until heated through and lightly browned. 

5. Serve in a wrap with avocado, on a bagel, or with potatoes. 

Notes

• Allowing the tofu to sit overnight lets the flavors settle.

• Adjust the seasonings and vegetables to match your favorite flavor profile! If using other vegetables, you may need to cook them first before adding in the tofu.
