The tofu in the photo is scrambed with coconut oil, turmeric, Vegit seasoning, and a some fresh cayenne (the only thing in my garden that the deer haven&#8217;t destroyed). If you read up on turmeric, you&#8217;ll find that there seems to be something about it that keeps the aging brain young. Vegit is a general-purpose herb-and-yeast seasoning that is easy to find in Health Food Stores, or at Whole Foods.<\/p>\n<p>Scrambled tofu goes good with <a href=\"http:\/\/acornabbey.com\/blog\/?p=1373\">chapati bread<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/acornabbey.com\/blog\/?p=1147\">Louisiana hot sauce<\/a>. For dessert, I like a handful of raw walnuts, a spoonful of strawberry preserves, and a swig of soy milk. Combing amino acids from seeds (chapati bread), legumes (tofu and soy milk) and nuts makes for very high quality vegetable protein.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vegetarians and vegans have known for a long time that one quick cure for a protein craving is scrambled tofu.
