Ingredients
Scale
- 1 block firm tofu, pressed and crumbled
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Corn tortillas
- Chopped onions
- Chopped cilantro

Instructions
- Sauté the tofu: In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the crumbled tofu and cook for about 5 minutes until it begins to brown.
- Add flavor: Stir in the cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Cook for another 3-5 minutes, allowing the spices to infuse the tofu.
- Warm your tortillas: While the tofu is cooking, warm the corn tortillas in a separate pan or microwave until they’re pliable and ready to hold all the delicious fillings.
- Assemble the tacos: Fill each tortilla with the cooked tofu mixture, letting the flavors meld together.
- Top with fresh ingredients: Top your tacos with chopped onions, fresh cilantro, and any additional toppings like salsa or avocado that you desire.
- Serve with a lime twist: Serve with lime wedges on the side; a squeeze of lime can brighten your taco experience!
Notes
Leftover tofu filling can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days in an airtight container. Reheat gently on the stovetop. Warm corn tortillas fresh each time to maintain texture.
