The BEST Vegan Tacos

⁣These vegan tacos are filled with
tofu seasoned with Mexican spices, black beans, corn and fire roasted tomatoes.
Then we top these off with some homemade guacamole and vegan cheese.



Tofu Vegan Tacos Recipe Ingredients:
14 oz. organic firm tofu, drained 2 - 3 tsp. Avocado or olive oil 2 crimini
mushrooms, super fine dice ½ cup canned black beans 1 cup fire roasted diced
tomatoes 1 cup organic canned corn 2 tsp. Ancho chile powder ½ tsp garlic
powder 2 tsp. Dried oregano 1 ½ tsp. Ground cumin ¼ cup Tamari sauce or soy
sauce 1 tsp. Smoked paprika Miyokos Vegan Farmhouse Cheddar, or regular cheddar
cheese ½ tsp. Salt 2 large avocados 1 large tomato, chopped ¼ cup red onion,
diced Salt Corn tortillas Directions: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. With
your hands, crumble the tofu into pieces into a bowl. Drizzle 2 to 3 tsp. Of
avocado oil to the tofu and stir to coat. Sprinkle in the following spices,
ancho chile powder, smoked paprika, cumin, oregano, garlic powder and salt. Add
a little at a time and then stir. Repeat. Then add the tamari and stir. Pour
this mixture out onto a parchment paper lined rimmed baking sheet. Spread the
tofu out in a single layer. This will ensure that it dries out as it cooks.
Place the tofu into the oven for 15 minutes. Then stir the tofu and cook an
additional 20 minutes or until the tofu is browned and you will notice that the
small pieces will be crispy and the larger pieces will be soft and pillowy.
This makes for a nice texture variation. While the tofu is cooking, we can make
guacamole. Scoop out the avocado into a medium bowl and add the chopped tomato, red onion and some salt. Using a potato masher, mash the ingredients together until it is the consistency you like. Taste test to see if you need more salt.
Set aside until it’s time to assemble the tacos. Take a large frying pan and
place it over medium heat. Add a tablespoon of avocado oil to the pan and then
add the mushrooms. Saute these for about 7 minutes stirring frequently. Add the
black beans, the fire roasted tomatoes, and the corn. Heat this while stirring
to make sure everything is hot, about 5 - 7 minutes. Then add the tofu mixture
and stir until combined. You can add a couple of tablespoons of water if the
mixture looks dry. Once this is hot you can make tacos! Always heat the
tortillas you plan to use to make tacos whether they are corn, flour or even
gluten free Siete brand tortillas. I like to use a tortilla warmer like I used
in the video or you can simply place the tortillas in a dry frying pan over
medium heat, tossing them until they are warm and soft. Taco holders make taco
making easy. First line the holder with your hot tortillas. Place the tofu
filling about half way up. Then top with homemade guacamole and finish it off
with Miyoko’s plant based cheese.
