What you’ll need:
For the taco seasoning*:
1 Tbsp cumin
1 Tbsp chili powder
1 Tbsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp sea salt
¼ tsp black pepper
OPTIONAL: ½ tsp cayenne pepper
For the tacos filling:
1/2 red onion, chopped
1 pepper, hot or sweet, chopped
5-6oz baby spinach
1 Tbsp olive oil
1 block organic, firm tofu, pressed & crumbled
6 corn tortillas
1 avocado
Optional Toppings:
.5oz cilantro, chopped
handful cherry tomatoes, halved
Slice tofu in half lengthwise. Press by layering on a plate: tea towel, tofu, tea towel, another plate. Press top plate lightly to begin to release excess water. Set aside.
While tofu presses, saute pepper, mushroom & onion in a large frying plan with olive oil until tender.
Combine taco seasoning in a small jar. Shake to mix. *This will make more than you need for this recipe. You’ll want to have it on hand in your spice cabinet!
Add tofu & 2 1/2 tsp prepared seasoning to pan. Toss to coat. Cook for an additional 6-8 minutes.
*If you have a gas range: Torch the tortillas on each side over high heat. (Set tortilla directly on flame; 30 seconds each side to yield a perfectly crispy, chewy tortilla!)
Smear each tortilla with ripe avocado. Top with taco filling, cilantro & tomatoes. ENJOY!
Serves 2-3.
