Ingredients

  • 14 oz. block extra-firm tofu (pressed*)
  • 2 large bell peppers (or 3 medium)
  • 1 red onion (or yellow or white)
  • 3 Tbsp. taco seasoning (divided)
  • 2 Tbsp. fresh lime juice (about 1 lime)
  • 1 Tbsp. tamari (or soy sauce)
  • 8 small tortillas (flour, corn, or almond flour)
  • Toppings of choice: Guacamole/avocado, pico de gallo, salsa, cilantro, vegan cheese, vegan sour cream, etc.

Instructions

  • Prepare oven: Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a large baking pan with parchment paper (or Silpat).
  • Make tofu sauce: In a medium bowl, add 2 Tbsp. taco seasoning (reserving 1 Tbsp.), lime juice, and tamari. Stir well to combine. If the sauce is overly thick, add a small splash of water.
  • Prepare tofu: Slice pressed tofu in strips. (I make about 14-16 strips.) Gently lay each piece in the sauce and flip to coat. Arrange tofu in a single layer on one half of the baking pan.
  • Prepare veggies: Slice onion and bell pepper in strips. Place in the leftover tofu bowl. Add remaining 1 Tbsp. taco seasoning. Toss well to coat. Arrange veggies on the other half of baking pan.
  • Bake: Place pan in oven. Bake for 10 minutes. Then flip tofu and toss veggies. Return to oven and bake 10 minutes more. (While it's baking, prepare any toppings of choice.)
  • Assemble: Warm tortillas if desired. Place tofu, veggies, and toppings of choice down center of tortillas.

Notes

*Pressing tofu: Use a tofu press beforehand if you have one. Otherwise, simply press the tofu between paper towels to remove some of the excess moisture.
Prefer tortilla-free? Turn this into a fajita bowl instead! Pair it with rice, Spanish rice, or quinoa, and toppings of choice.
For gluten-free: Use GF tortillas and tamari.
