Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 small red onion diced (about 1 cup)
  • 1 zucchini diced
  • 3 ounces crimini mushrooms chopped (6 to 8 mushrooms)
  • 1 14-ounce package extra firm tofu drained and pressed
  • 3 tablespoons nutritional yeast
  • ¼ cup unsweetened, plain non-dairy milk
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • ½ teaspoon dried basil
  • ¼ teaspoon turmeric
  • ½ teaspoon cumin
  • ½ teaspoon sea salt
  • ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes optional
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper
  • 1 tomato diced
  • 2 scallions chopped
  • ¼ cup kalamata olives chopped

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 375°F and lightly oil a small casserole dish.
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook for about 5 minutes, until it softens. Add the mushrooms and zucchini and cook for about 5 more minutes, until the vegetables become soft.
  • In a food processor, mix together the tofu, non-dairy milk, nutritional yeast, cornstarch, basil, turmeric, cumin, sea salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes, if you’re using them. Process until smooth.
  • Fold the vegetables into the tofu mixture and spread into the casserole dish. Top with the chopped tomato, scallions and olives.
  • Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, until the frittata is firm and golden brown.
  • Allow your frittata to rest for about 5 minutes before slicing and serving.
