Tropical Tofu Scramble

This tropical tofu scramble is a delicious and healthy way to start your day. It's made with extra-firm tofu that's crumbled and browned in a skillet. Then, mango, pineapple, and red bell pepper are added to the skillet and cooked until softened. Finally, chili powder, turmeric, and smoked paprika are added to the skillet and cooked for 1 minute more. The result is a flavorful and nutritious scramble that's perfect for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.

The inspiration for this recipe came to me one day when I was craving a tofu scramble but wanted something with a little more flavor. I had some mango and pineapple in my fridge, so I decided to add them to the scramble. The result was a delicious and refreshing scramble that was perfect for a hot summer day. Since then, I've been making this scramble regularly, and it's become one of my favorite tofu recipes.
