Today’s Special: Spicy Tofu Tacos

Hey there, foodies! I’m excited to share my latest creation with you all today: Spicy Tofu Tacos. The inspiration for this dish came from a recent trip I took to Mexico, where I fell in love with the vibrant flavors and spices of traditional Mexican cuisine. I wanted to recreate that experience at home, and these tacos do just that!

For this recipe, you’ll need the following ingredients:

  • extra-firm tofu (400g)
  • taco seasoning (30g)
  • red bell pepper (1, diced)
  • red onion (1, sliced)
  • garlic (2 cloves, minced)
  • jalapeno (1, diced)
  • lime (1, juiced)
  • corn tortillas (8)
  • avocado (1, sliced)
  • cilantro (for garnish)

To prepare this delicious dish, you’ll need the following kitchen tools:

  • knife
  • cutting board
  • skillet
  • spatula
  • bowl

Start by pressing the tofu to remove excess moisture, then cut it into small cubes. In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the tofu with taco seasoning until crispy. Remove from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, add a bit of oil and sauté the red bell pepper, red onion, garlic, and jalapeno until softened.

Once the vegetables are cooked, return the tofu to the skillet and mix everything together. Squeeze fresh lime juice over the mixture and stir to combine. Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet until soft and pliable.

To assemble the tacos, spoon the tofu and vegetable mixture onto each tortilla. Top with sliced avocado and fresh cilantro. Serve hot and enjoy the spicy goodness of these tacos!

The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 1000g. This recipe makes 4 servings, with each serving weighing around 250g. Each serving is estimated to be around 300 calories.

Pro-tip: For an extra kick of flavor, try marinating the tofu in the taco seasoning overnight before cooking. This will really allow the spices to penetrate the tofu and create a more intense flavor profile.

I hope you give these Spicy Tofu Tacos a try and make them your own with your favorite toppings and seasonings. Happy cooking!
