Zucchini Scramble
Makes 4 cups

This quick scramble makes a delicious breakfast. Serve it with English muffins, warm tortillas or toasted French bread.

  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 medium zucchini, finely diced (about 2 cups)
  • ½ pound firm tofu, diced
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1–2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • about 1/2 cup salsa (optional)
  • English muffins, warm tortillas or toasted French bread for serving

Heat 1/2 cup of water in a large non-stick skillet. Add onion and garlic. Cook over high heat, stirring often, until soft, about 5 minutes.

Add zucchini, tofu, and chili powder. Reduce heat and cook, stirring often, until zucchini is tender, about 5 minutes. Add a small amount of additional water if necessary to prevent sticking.
