Tofu and Tomato Omelette - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Yes, you can replace fresh garlic with 1/4 teaspoon of garlic powder for every clove used. Add it along with the other spices for even distribution.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat gently in a pan or microwave with a splash of water to maintain moisture.
Yes, this tofu and tomato omelette is naturally gluten-free. Just ensure all spices and additives used are certified gluten-free if needed.
Absolutely! Use a non-stick pan and substitute oil with vegetable broth or water to sauté the onions and garlic without sticking.
Increase the tofu quantity or add cooked chickpeas or lentils. A sprinkle of nutritional yeast before serving also boosts protein and adds a cheesy flavor.
Yes, bell peppers, spinach, or zucchini work well. Add sturdy veggies with the onions and leafy greens towards the end to prevent overcooking.
Add red pepper flakes or a pinch of cayenne with the spices. Serving with hot sauce or fresh chilies also enhances heat.
Serve with avocado slices, whole-grain toast, or a fresh green salad. A dollop of vegan sour cream or salsa adds extra flavor.
Freezing isn’t recommended as tofu’s texture becomes grainy. For meal prep, refrigerate and consume within 3 days for best quality.
Stir in a tablespoon of unsweetened plant-based milk or broth while cooking. Covering the pan briefly can also help retain moisture.
