Ingredients:

For the Vegan Scrambled Eggs:

  • 1 block (14 oz) firm tofu (drained and pressed)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil (for cooking)
  • 1/2 cup kale, chopped
  • 1/2 red bell pepper, diced
  • 1/2 orange bell pepper, diced
  • 1/2 yellow bell pepper, diced
  • 1/2 tsp Himalayan salt (or to taste)
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/2 tsp dried dill weed
  • 1/2 tsp ground black pepper (optional)
  • 1 tbsp chopped fresh cilantro (optional)

For the Toasted Focaccia with Avocado:

  • 2 slices focaccia bread
  • 1 ripe Haas avocado, sliced into thin rounds
  • 1-2 tbsp avocado oil (for drizzling)
  • Salt and black pepper, to taste

Instructions:

  1. Prepare the Toasted Focaccia:

    • Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
    • Drizzle a little olive oil on the focaccia slices and toast them in the skillet for 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden and crispy. Set aside.

  2. Make the Vegan Scrambled Eggs:

    • Crumble the tofu into small chunks in a bowl to resemble scrambled eggs.
    • Heat 1 tbsp of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
    • Add the diced red, orange, and yellow bell peppers and chopped kale to the skillet. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes, until the veggies are soft and slightly charred.
    • Add the crumbled tofu to the skillet with the veggies and cook for another 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure it heats through.
    • Season the tofu mixture with Himalayan salt, oregano, dill weed, and black pepper. Stir to combine and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
    • Optional: Sprinkle with fresh cilantro before removing from heat.

  3. Prepare the Avocado:

    • While the scrambled tofu is cooking, slice the Haas avocado into thin rounds.
    • Drizzle the avocado slices with avocado oil and sprinkle with salt and black pepper to taste.

  4. Assemble the Dish:

    • Place the toasted focaccia slices on plates.
    • Top with the scrambled tofu and veggie mixture.
    • Arrange the avocado slices on top or beside the tofu scramble.
