Open the tofu package and drain the water.

Chop the white onion and cremini mushrooms.

In a medium frying pan, add 1/4 cup of water and heat it.

Add the chopped onion and mushrooms to the pan and sauté for about 3 minutes.

Crumble the pressed tofu with your hands to achieve scrambled egg consistency.

Stir the crumbled tofu occasionally to allow it to brown.

In a bowl, whisk together ground turmeric, chipotle pepper, smoked paprika, kalanamak, garlic powder, onion powder, nutritional yeast, and 1/3 cup of unsweetened plant milk.

Add the whisked mixture to the tofu and mix well, ensuring all seasoning is incorporated.

Sauté the tofu mixture for about 2-4 minutes, depending on desired wetness or dryness.

Add two handfuls of spinach and arugula to the pan, turn off the heat, and cover to wilt for a couple of minutes.

Chop fresh chives and cilantro for garnish.

Slice the Roma tomato.

Plate the wilted greens and top with half the tofu mixture.

Garnish with the sliced tomato, chopped cilantro, and chives.

Add hot sauce to taste.
