   Add the tofu: Drain the tofu, but do not press it to remove excess water. Use your hands to crumble it into bite-sized pieces and add it to the pan. Use a spatula to stir the ingredients until they are evenly distributed. Simply Recipes / Hannah Zimmerman

   Add the spices: Sprinkle in the nutritional yeast, paprika, turmeric, salt, and black pepper. Gently stir the tofu to evenly coat it with the spices. The turmeric will turn the tofu bright yellow. Simply Recipes / Hannah Zimmerman
