Servings: 2 servings
Ingredients
- 15 oz firm or extra firm tofu
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 2 ½ tablespoons taco seasoning
- 3 tablespoons of your favorite salsa
Instructions
- Pat the tofu dry (no need to press it*) and crumble it into small bite sized pieces.
- In the same bowl with the tofu, mix in the olive oil and taco seasoning and mix until the tofu is fully coated.
- Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat and once hot, add in the tofu crumbles. Cook for 10 minutes, stirring often, until the tofu is browned and a little crispy on the edges. If it starts to stick, you can add in a little oil.
- Stir in the salsa and cook for 2 additional minutes. Remove from the heat and serve.
- Enjoy with you favorite taco toppings!

Notes
*Cooking it in the skillet really does a great job of steaming the excess moisture out of the tofu but feel free to press it a little if you'd like!
Storage - Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days, or freeze for up to 2 months.
