If you can find it, I HIGHLY recommend using super firm tofu (sometimes also referred to as high protein tofu). It’s much firmer and grates nicely. Extra-firm tofu also works well.
Feel free to make your own taco seasoning OR use whatever seasoning you prefer.
I’ve stored this in the fridge for 4 days before and it was still good. I like mine with a little crunch to it and it will lose that crunch in the fridge when re-heated. But it will still taste delicious
Tofu Ground Beef Bowls
Ingredients
For the tofu:
- 1 block extra-firm tofu, pressed, super firm also works well*
- 2 tablespoons Taco seasoning
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- ½ teaspoon fine sea salt
For the sweet potato:
- 1 large sweet potato, cut into bite sized pieces
- ½ tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon taco seasoning
- salt and pepper to taste
For serving:
- 1 cup cottage cheese
- 1 tablespoon hot honey
- ½ avocado, sliced or diced
- handful of cilantro chopped
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Using the large side of a box grater, shred the block of tofu. Some large chunks will fall off so I take those and very gently push them through the grater. Place the tofu on the prepared baking sheet.
- Drizzle the tofu with the oil, salt, and taco seasoning and toss to combine so it is evenly covered. Spread the tofu out into a thin layer. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the tofu is crispy around the edges. Check around 25 minutes to make sure it isn't burning. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Once cooled a bit, dice the tofu so it’s in shreds.
- Meanwhile, toss the sweet potato with the olive oil, salt + pepper, and taco seasoning. Spread in an even layer on a baking sheet and roast for 25 minutes, tossing halfway, until fork tender.
- Assemble the bowls by dividing the tofu "beef", sweet potato, cottage cheese, avocado, and honey evenly among 2 bowls. Garnish with cilantro and ENJOY!
