Ingredients
  

Tofu
  • 14 oz extra firm tofu, drained and crumbled
  • 4 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

  • 1/2 tsp cumin
  • 2 tbsp tomato paste
  • 8 whole wheat tortillas

Method
 

  1. Preheat the oven to 400℉. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. Using paper towel or kitchen towel, squeeze out the liquid from the tofu. Any remaining liquid will release once baked in the oven. Break apart the tofu into small bite size pieces using your hands and set aside.
  3. In a large bowl, mix together olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, cumin and tomato paste. Add the tofu and mix together until well incorporated.
  4. Spread the crumbled tofu evenly on the prepared baking sheet. After 15 minutes of cooking, stir the tofu and cook for another 15-20 minutes until the tofu is crispy and avoid burning the tofu.
  5. TOPPINGS: shredded cabbage, red pepper, avocado, vegan cheese, Greek yogurt, cilantro or parsley
