Best 10 Tofu Tacoburrito Filling Recipes

TOFU TACOS - THE BEST VEGAN TACO!

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine oil, soy sauce, and spices. Form a fairly runny paste. If required, add a little bit more oil.
• Using your hands, crumble up the super firm tofu into small pieces. Make sure no major sized bits are left remaining. It's okay if the crumbles differ in size - they will crisp up differently and provide a great variety of texture.
• Add the crumbled tofu into the bowl with the seasoning paste. Combine well, making sure that all the tofu pieces are coated evenly.
• Lay all the tofu pieces on a covered baking sheet.
• Stirring occasionally, bake at around 355°F for 25-35 min, or until all of the tofu is nice and crispy. Some pieces will be darker than others, and that's perfectly fine - just make sure not to burn them.
• Finish the tofu with a sprinkle of nutritional yeast, if desired, for an extra cheesy note and B-vitamins!
• Heat up the salsa in a saucepan until it's hot all the way through and reaches a nice, thick consistency. If desired, this is where you add your black beans for the final minute or two of cooking.
• Mix your tofu with your salsa mixture. Salt and pepper to taste.
• Fill your tortillas with the tofu mixture. Add veggies, if desired. Serve and enjoy!

• Sauté onion and garlic in olive oil.
• Add aminos, tomato paste and spices to pan. Stir well.
• Squeeze the water out of the tofu with a dishtowel. Crumble it finely into the pan (so that it vaguely has the texture of ground beef). Cook, stirring occasionally, a few minutes or until slightly browned.

BEAN AND TOFU BURRITOS

Steps:

• Bring 1/4 cup water, the rice, the beans and their liquid, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper to a simmer in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to low and stir. Cover and cook until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed, 16 to 18 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the tofu; season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring, until golden brown, 5 minutes. Add the sazon and cook, stirring, 2 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon water; cook, stirring, until absorbed. Add the tofu and scallions to the rice; fluff with a fork.
• Wrap the tortillas in damp paper towels and microwave 30 seconds. Sprinkle the bottom halves with the cheese; top with the tofu mixture, pico de gallo and lettuce. Fold the bottom edge over the filling, fold in the sides, then roll up tightly. Arrange seam-side down on a large microwave-safe plate and cover with a damp paper towel. Microwave until warm, 2 to 3 minutes. Serve with hot sauce and sour cream.

Add tofu, bell pepper, jalapeño and garlic and sauté until heated through, about 3 minutes. Add cheese and stir until melted, about 1 minute. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Spoon tofu mixture down center of each tortilla, dividing tofu equally. Top with lettuce and cilantro. Squeeze juice from lime wedges over. Wrap tortilla around filling and serve.

THAI TOFU BURRITOS WITH PEANUT SAUCE

FRIED TOFU TACOS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Set the pressed tofu on a baking sheet and freeze for at least 4 hours, up to overnight. Let thaw completely, then cut into 8 ½-inch-thick strips. (Freezing is optional, but will give the tofu a meatier texture.)
• Meanwhile, make the crema sauce: In a medium bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, crema, lime juice, ancho chile powder, and salt. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
• In a wide, shallow dish, whisk together the rice wine vinegar, ¼ cup canola oil, lemon juice and zest, caper brine, nori, sugar, and salt. Add the tofu to the marinade and turn to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 30-60 minutes, flipping once halfway through.
• Heat the remaining 6 cups of canola oil in a wide, shallow pan over medium-high heat until the temperature reaches 375°F (190°C).
• Add ½ cup flour to a medium plate. In a medium bowl, whisk together the remaining cup of flour and the beer until a thick, but pourable, batter (similar to pancake batter) forms.
• Working in batches of 4-5 strips at a time, remove the tofu from the marinade and dredge in the flour, shaking off any excess, then dip in the beer batter. Transfer to the hot oil and fry for 5-7 minutes, until golden brown on all sides. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and immediately sprinkle with salt.
• Assemble the tacos: Add 1 piece of fried tofu to each tortilla, then top with 2-3 tablespoons of pico de gallo and a handful of shredded cabbage and drizzle with 1-2 tablespoons of the crema sauce. Serve immediately with lime wedges alongside.
• Enjoy!

BURRITO FILLING

Steps:

• Saute onion in a large skillet adding garlic and cilantro during the last minute or two.
• Add meat and seasonings and stir well. Allow to saute for a minute or two, letting the meat absorb some of the flavors.
• When it seems that it is really dry and the mixture is starting to stick add the tomatoes and liquid and scrape all the browned bits from the bottom. TONS of flavor there. Add sugar if using. ( The sugar makes the tomatoes taste more like home grown and home canned or even organic).
• Reduce heat to simmer and cook for 20 minutes or so. When you are ready to use the mixture return heat to high and cook off almost all the liquid so that your filling is not runny or wet.
• Use to fill tortillas or in a casserole.
