Recipe information

  • Total Time

    17 minutes

  • Yield

    2 servings (3 small tacos or 2 medium tacos per serving)

Ingredients

1

Tbsp. avocado oil

1

12-oz. package extra-firm tofu, drained and patted dry

2

Tbsp. taco seasoning

3

large handfuls baby spinach

¼

cup water

6

small or 4 medium tortillas

1

avocado, sliced

Hot sauce, to taste (optional)

Chopped cilantro, to taste (optional)

Sliced jalapeños (optional)

Cheese of your choosing (optional)

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Crumble tofu into the skillet and let sizzle for five minutes without stirring so it turns golden brown and a bit crispy.

    Step 2

    Flip the tofu and let cook for two minutes more. Then, sprinkle with taco seasoning and add baby spinach and water. Place a lid on the skillet for one minute to help the spinach wilt.

    Step 3

    Remove the lid and stir until the spinach is wilted and the liquid is absorbed, about one minute more.

    Step 4

    Divide the tofu mixture among the tortillas and top with sliced avocado and your favorite toppings.
