Here's what you need: medium yukon potatoes, olive oil, smoked paprika, dried oregano, garlic powder, kosher salt, pepper, extra firm tofu, low sodium soy sauce, nutritional yeast, onion powder, ground turmeric, grape tomatoes, fresh spinach, large flour tortillas, avocado, hot sauce

Provided by Rachel Gaewski

Categories     Lunch

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

3 medium yukon potatoes, peeled and cubed
olive oil, to taste
½ teaspoon smoked paprika
½ teaspoon dried oregano
3 teaspoons garlic powder, divided
kosher salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
14 oz extra firm tofu, 1 block
3 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
3 tablespoons nutritional yeast
1 teaspoon onion powder
½ teaspoon ground turmeric
1 cup grape tomatoes, halved
3 cups fresh spinach
4 large flour tortillas
1 avocado, for serving, diced
hot sauce, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • Add the potatoes to a baking sheet with a drizzle of olive oil, the paprika, oregano, ½ teaspoon of garlic powder, salt, and pepper and toss until well coated.
  • Bake for 20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the potatoes are tender.
  • Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, crumble the block of tofu into the pan until it resembles the consistency of scrambled eggs, being careful not to over-crumble because it will continue to break apart as you cook. Cook for 4-5 minutes, until the tofu is slightly golden.
  • Add the soy sauce, nutritional yeast, the remaining 2½ teaspoons garlic powder, the onion powder, turmeric, salt, and pepper and stir until well combined. Add the tomatoes and cook for 4-5 minutes, until the tomatoes become slightly wrinkled. Add the spinach and cook until wilted, 3-4 minutes.
  • To assemble a burrito, add ¼ of the tofu scramble, ¼ of the potatoes, some avocado, and hot sauce to the center of a tortilla. Fold in the sides and roll up, keeping the filling tucked in place. Repeat with the remaining ingredients. Cut in half and serve.
  • Enjoy!

TOFU SCRAMBLE TACOS



Tofu Scramble Tacos image

These tofu tacos are a quick, easy, vegetarian meal and makes enough for dinner and lunch the next day. I keep an all-natural taco seasoning on hand to use in these but you can easily use your own blend of spices. They're versatile and can be jazzed up with olives, jalepenos, cheese, avocado, or pico de gallo. This can also be just as tasty eaten on it's own or over brown rice.
