Tofu Scramble Casserole with Veggies

Ingredients:

1 lb. Onions
1 lb. Carrots
8 ribs Celery
1 lb. Corn Kernels, frozen
1 lb. Broccoli Florets
1 lb. Peas, frozen
1 Jalapeño Pepper OR Hot Sauce (to taste)
1-1/2 tsp. Turmeric, powder
1 tbsp. Oregano, dried leaves
2 lbs. Tofu, soft*
1 cup Nutritional Yeast
2 tbsp. Soy Sauce OR Bragg Aminos

Preparation:

We usually make our tofu scrambles in our wok but, for this recipe, we baked  it into a casserole in our microwave oven in a large covered ceramic baking  dish, but it can also be baked in a conventional oven at 350 degrees F. It’s  great for a main meal, for breakfast, and in sandwiches.

Even though there are only two of us, we usually prepare a larger batch of  food so that we have leftovers for a day or two (which, by the way, are very  good), so that we don’t have to cook every day. If you wish to make a smaller  amount, cut the recipe in half.

*Instead of using prepared tofu, you might like to make your own at a  fraction of the cost, in which case substitute one batch for the 2 pounds  specified in the recipe. See: Making Tofu (If you do make your own tofu,  add 2 tbsp. of corn starch to the blender mix, below.)

I you are making your own tofu, begin by making it and, while it is cooking, follow the directions below; otherwise, just follow the instructions below.

Begin by washing and peeling the carrots and onions, and washing the  broccoli, celery  and jalapeño pepper. Dice the onions and celery, and place in the covered baking  dish. The  carrots can be shredded or diced, and the jalapeño pepper should be finely  chopped before adding to the covered baking dish (or add hot sauce as desired).  Cover and bake until the onions become semi-translucent. Mix occasionally to  ensure uniform cooking of all the vegetables.

Add the oregano, corn, broccoli, and peas to the baking dish, cover and cook  until all the veggies are tender, mixing occasionally.

While the veggies are cooking, place the tofu, nutritional yeast, turmeric,  and soy sauce in the container of a high speed blender (if you are using freshly  made tofu, don’t forget to add the cornstarch), cover and run the blender at  high speed until the contents are smooth.

When the veggies are cooked, add the tofu  blend, mix well, and continue cooking until the tofu is hot, which takes about 5-10 minutes.

Serve and enjoy!

Leftover tofu scramble can be safely stored for 3-4 days in a covered  container in the refrigerator. Cold tofu scramble also makes a great pita bread  or tortilla stuffer.

lambrt-60The above vegan recipe is in keeping with God’s creation intent (Genesis 1:29-31): ‘Then God said, “I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food. And to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground– everything that has the breath of life in it– I give every green plant for food.” And it was so. God saw all that he had made, and it was very good.’ (NIV) Let no animal suffer or die that we may live
