This Tofu Broccoli Pasta is an easy and delicious vegan 30 Minute Dinner Recipe!
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb pasta
- 3–4 cups small diced broccoli
- 1 (14 oz) package extra firm tofu
- 1 1/2 tbsp + 2 tsp olive oil, divided
- 2 tbsp Tamari or soy sauce
- 2 tbsp nutritional yeast
- 3/4 teaspoon granulated garlic
- 1/2 teaspoon dried herbs, I like herbs de Provence
- 1 tsp salt, or more to taste
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
Instructions
- Fill a large pot with water and bring to a boil. Add your pasta, stir and cook for about 5 minutes. Add in your broccoli and cook until pasta is finished cooking, 5-7 more minutes. Drain and put back into the pot.
- Prepare the tofu while the pasta is cooking. Pat the tofu try and press if desired. I like to buy the pre-pressed tofu because it cuts down on prep time. Cut tofu into bite size pieces. Heat a large pan over medium heat and add 2 teaspoons olive oil, cubed tofu, tamari and garlic powder. Stir and let cook until tofu has browned, about 10 minutes.
- Add the tofu to the pasta and broccoli along with the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, nutritional yeast, granulated garlic, dried herbs, salt and pepper. Taste and add more salt and pepper if needed. Enjoy!
