Steps

  1. Prepare all vegetables and the tofu first so they are ready before cooking.
  2. Make the salsa: stir the tomato, red onion, jalapeño, cilantro, three-quarters of the lime juice and a pinch (about one-fifth) of the salt in a bowl; set aside.
  3. Make the drizzle: stir the Greek yogurt with the remaining quarter of the lime juice and another pinch (one-fifth) of the salt; set aside.
  4. Heat half of the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the sweet potato and one-fifth of the salt, cover and cook 12 to 15 minutes, stirring often, until tender and browned. Transfer to a plate.
  5. Add one-quarter of the olive oil to the skillet, then the garlic and kale; cook 3 to 4 minutes until wilted. Transfer to the plate beside the sweet potato.
  6. Add the remaining quarter of the olive oil, then the tofu, turmeric, smoked paprika, cumin, black pepper and the remaining two-fifths of the salt. Cook 6 to 8 minutes, stirring, until lightly golden.
  7. Stir in the edamame and cook 3 minutes until hot through.
  8. Divide the kale among four bowls, top with the sweet potato and tofu scramble, then spoon on the salsa and yogurt drizzle and sprinkle with the pumpkin seeds.
