  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 1 ½ teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon mild paprika or sweet paprika

  • 1 ½ cups spinach
  • ½ 14 or 16 oz packet of silken tofu
  • ¼ teaspoon turmeric
  • salt & pepper

Instructions
 

  • Dice your red pepper and onions then put your onions in a pan with a bit of avocado oil. Cook for a few minutes until they become translucent then add the minced garlic and red pepper. Cook for another 4 minutes then add your paprika, cumin, salt, and pep-er.
  • Cook for a minute then add your can of diced tomatoes, incorporate, and simmer until the sauce has reduced and is thicker (5-10 min)
  • Add your spinach and cook for another 2 minutes
  • Break ⅔ of your silken tofu into chunks and set aside. Break the last ⅓ of your tofu into chunks in a bowl and add your turmeric. Mix together, this will be your "egg yolk," how fun!
  • Then place your white silken tofu into 3-4 egg shapes on top of the tomato based and then add the turmeric egg yolk in the center of each circle of white silken tofu.
  • Put the lid back on the pan and keep it cooking for 4-5 min so the tofu can heat up. Serve directly on your table and scoop up the deliciousness with your favorite bread- enjoy!
