Why I love this breakfast: This tofu scramble includes everything you need for a super-healthy start to your day. The protein-packed tofu will keep you full for hours and help you balance blood sugar levels. Nutritional yeast adds vital B-12, is a powerful anti-inflammatory and satisfies your umami taste buds. Turmeric, garlic and cumin are some of nature's best anti-inflammatories with incredible health benefits such as improved healing after surgery and better blood sugar control in diabetics. In fact, turmeric scores highest as the most anti-inflammatory food on the planet (according to the Dietary Inflammatory Index). Spinach, herbs and a variety of vegetables bring an entire rainbow of vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients as well as fiber. Nigella seeds, or black cumin, are an incredible spice shown to improve weight loss, cholesterol, triglycerides, blood pressure and blood sugar control. The turmeric, nutritional yeast and nigella seeds in this tofu scramble also help suppress hunger. As for the black salt, you can omit it for a salt-free scramble, but it adds sulphur, giving it an egg-like taste and smell. And, it tastes great. Really, what more could you ask for from a breakfast?!
