Ingredients

• 8 Corn tortillas
• 15 oz Canned black beans
• 14 oz Firm tofu
• 2 Avocados
• 1 cup Cherry tomatoes
• 0.5 Red onion
• 0.5 cup Cilantro
• 2 Lime
• 2 tablespoons Extra virgin olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Chili powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Drain and rinse the canned black beans and set aside.

Step 2

Press the tofu to remove excess moisture, then crumble it into small pieces with your hands.

In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.

Step 4

Add the crumbled tofu to the skillet and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 5

Add the ground cumin, chili powder, half of the salt, and half of the pepper, stirring to coat the tofu. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the tofu is golden brown. Remove from heat.

Step 6

While the tofu is cooking, dice the avocados and cherry tomatoes, and finely chop the red onion and cilantro.

Step 7

In a medium bowl, combine the black beans, diced avocados, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and cilantro.

Step 8

Squeeze the juice of one lime over the mixture, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil, salt, and pepper, and gently mix everything together.

Step 9

Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side or until they are pliable.

Step 10

To assemble the tacos, place a spoonful of the tofu mixture on each tortilla, top with the avocado-bean mixture, and garnish with additional cilantro and a squeeze of lime juice if desired.
