HOW TO MAKE VEGAN FRITTATA
It’s amazingly simple to make! All you need is a few ingredients and a food procesor. The preparation time is also really short and the rest is done by your oven.
This dish is also a gluten-free vegan recipe! We made sure it doesn’t contain gluten yet holds together perfectly well.
A vegan frittata made with tofu will have a similar flavour to an egg-based frittata dish, however the texture will be a little different. Eggs give a baked frittata a lighter and “spongy” texture, whereas tofu will make the vegan versions a bit denser with a “smoother” mouth feel when you bite into it. Nonetheless, the flavours are quite similar and done right with all those mushrooms, green onions and those colourful bell peppers you will hardly notice the difference.
STORING AND FREEZING
Leftovers keep very well in the fridge (covered) for 3-4 days, making it perfect for a work lunch as well. It is freezer friendly for 2-3 months, but there may be some slight changes to the texture as tofu can change a little in texture once frozen and then thawed.
Turmeric is a wonder food in many ways
Because in this recipe we have used turmeric powder, let us share a few facts about it!
Less than a teaspoon a day of turmeric appears to significantly lower the DNA-mutating ability of cancer-causing substances.
Turmeric and especially its most active compound curcumin have many scientifically-proven health benefits, such as the potential to prevent heart disease, Alzheimer’s and cancer. It’s a potent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant and may also help improve symptoms of depression and arthritis.
Turmeric is very helpful for people with rheumatoid arthritis – curcumin (found in turmeric) was more effective in alleviating pain for RA sufferers, compared to the leading drug of choice.
