    Tofu Scramble Stuffed Peppers

    Jump to Recipe Pin

    These Tofu Scramble Stuffed Peppers are a unique twist on the traditional tofu scramble. They are loaded with Italian flavors and can be served for dinner.

    Tofu Scramble Stuffed Peppers birds eye view.

    I recently got four green peppers that needed to be eaten ASAP, so I knew they would have to be the star of a meal. Looking into my pantry, and knowing I didn't have a grain to add to the peppers, I decided to make Tofu Scramble Stuffed Peppers.

    Just like tofu scramble, whether it be in a burrito or other form, it is customizable. You can include all your favorite herbs, spices, and veggies.

    I just happen to include things that I had in my kitchen and pantry. I added tomato sauce, basil, oregano, and vegan mozzarella to these peppers to give an Italian flair.

    Last year, I was given some beautiful plates and bowls as a gift. They all have different color combinations.

    It is funny because at the time of receiving them, I had just finished my latest back drop (painting on canvas board), which just happened to match the colors of a couple of the plates perfectly.

    I love these Pyrex baking dishes! I used a 7 ½" x 9 ½" baking dish for this recipe. It's great because it comes with a cover, so I can put it in the fridge.

      Hi! I’m cooking more and more vegetarian for my family . In this recipe do you crumble the tofu?

        Yes, thanks for asking! This is one of my older recipes which I see isn’t clear in the directions. I will go in and update tomorrow. In the ingredients it should read, “drained” (no need to press it). Then in the instructions: #4. Crumble tofu and add it to the pan. Cook until starting to brown.

      What is the purpose of boiling the capcisums before baking them?

        The peppers would be crisp if not, boiling them insures that they’ll be tender.

      Oh wow these looks amazing! I love stuffed peppers in the fall, there's something so comforting about them - maybe it was due to growing up with them during this time of the year. I love that you used tofu, they sound delicious!
