Ingredients
- 1 block 14 oz extra-firm tofu, pressed
- 1 tbs olive oil
- 1 tbs soy sauce or tamari
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp chili powder
- 1/2 tsp ground cumin
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 8 small corn tortillas warmed
For topping:
- 1 avocado sliced
- 1/2 cup pickled red onions
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves
- 1 lime cut into wedges
Instructions
- Press the tofu for at least 15 minutes to remove excess moisture. Preheat the oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Crumble the tofu into small pieces using your hands or a fork and place it in a large bowl.
- Add olive oil, soy sauce, smoked paprika, garlic powder, chili powder, cumin, and salt. Toss to coat evenly.
- Spread the tofu mixture in an even layer on the prepared baking sheet. Roast for 25 to 30 minutes, stirring halfway through, until golden and slightly crispy.
- While the tofu roasts, prep your toppings and warm the tortillas.
- To assemble, fill each tortilla with the crumbled tofu, avocado slices, pickled onions, and fresh cilantro. Serve with lime wedges and an optional drizzle of sauce.
Notes
