Pat the tofu dry (no need to press it*) and crumble it into small bite sized pieces.

Add in the quinoa, tofu crumbles, and spices. Stir and continue to cook for 5 minutes until completely heated through.

Notes
*Cooking it in the skillet really does a great job of steaming the excess moisture out of the tofu but feel free to press it a little if you'd like!
