Tofu and Tomato Omelette

Tofu omelette with vegetables is great for vegans and vegetarians. It is prepared without eggs, but due to the yellow color and texture of tofu fried with vegetables and spices, it looks like a regular omelette. Tofu is considered a dietary product, it is a source of protein and iron.

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.
