Tofu burritos! They're perfect for a quick lunch or dinner and are a fantastic dish to introduce your friends and family to the world of vegan food.
Tofu is an incredibly versatile ingredient that is rich in protein and can take on any flavors you choose to give it. In this recipe, we're going to enhance the tofu with spices and vegetables to make nutritious and flavorful burritos.
Start by taking the tofu out of the package and draining it well. Put it on paper towels to absorb the water. Meanwhile, you can start slicing the onion, preparing the pepper and the leafy greens.
To prepare the tofu, crumble it with your hands, add the salt, oregano, soy sauce, and turmeric. Here you have the option to add a bit of chipotle powder or adobo sauce for an extra touch of flavor. Mix everything together well.
In a pan, add the oil and then the onion. When it's golden, add the pepper and the tofu. Cook for 5-6 minutes or until the tofu is dry and the vegetables are crispy.
Now, let's assemble the burritos! Place a tortilla, add a quarter of an avocado and smash it, then add the tofu, chipotle mayo if you're using it, and a large handful of leafy greens.
Roll up the burrito and cover with baking paper and aluminum foil.
