Instructions

1. Prepare the vegan egg
   To prepare the vegan egg, blend all egg ingredients until smooth and creamy: tofu, nutritional yeast, turmeric, paprika, mustard, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and milk. Set aside.
2. Warm a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the chopped onion and bell pepper. Sauté in a tbsp of water for 5 minutes, until the onions are tender and turning translucent.
3. Add the garlic and spices and stir for 2 minutes, until nice and fragrant.
4. Pour in the diced tomatoes, stir and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to maintain a gentle simmer and cook for 5 minutes to give the flavors time to meld.
5. Use the back of a spoon to make some wells and scoop in the tofu egg mixture. Repeat until all egg mixture is used up.
6. Bring to a low simmer, cover and cook for 5 minutes. Then, remove the lid and cook for 3 more minutes, allowing the excess liquid to evaporate.
7. Top with fresh parsley and nutritional yeast. Serve with any kind of crusty bread. Enjoy!
