Ingredients
  

  • 1  block of extra-firm tofu, drained and pressed
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1  tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2  teaspoon cumin
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 8 small taco-sized tortillas (corn or flour)
  • Toppings: shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, diced onions, avocado slices, salsa, chopped cilantro, lime wedges, etc.

Instructions
 

  • Preparation
  • Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  • While the oven is preheating, prepare the tofu. Drain the tofu and press it to remove excess moisture. You can use a tofu press or place the tofu between paper towels and place a heavy object on top for about 15-20 minutes.
  • Once the tofu is pressed, cut it into small cubes.
  • Marinating and Baking:
  • In a bowl, mix together the olive oil, soy sauce, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
  • Add the tofu cubes to the bowl and gently toss them in the marinade until evenly coated.
  • Arrange the marinated tofu cubes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or lightly greased.
  • Bake the tofu in the preheated oven for about 25-30 minutes, or until the tofu is golden brown and slightly crispy, flipping the cubes halfway through for even cooking.
  • Assembling Tacos:
  • Warm the taco-sized tortillas according to the package instructions.
  • Assemble the tacos by placing a few pieces of baked tofu on each tortilla.
  • Top with shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, diced onions, avocado slices, salsa, chopped cilantro, and any other toppings you prefer.
  • Squeeze fresh lime juice over the tacos for extra flavor.
