Preparation
- In a large saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the onion and cook until semi-translucent, 3-4 minutes.
- Use your hands to crumble the tofu into the pan, then use a spatula to continue to break apart while cooking for 3-4 minutes, until slightly browned.
- Add the soy sauce, chili powder, garlic powder, cumin, paprika, and cayenne. Continue to cook and break the tofu apart until browned and crumbly.
- To assemble, spread brown rice on the bottom of a bowl, then layer on lettuce, black beans, corn, tofu sofritas, pico de gallo, guacamole, and onions.
- Serve topped with cilantro.
- Enjoy!

Good, but would be better if you marinate the crumbled tofu in taco sauce and finish cooking it with the marinade. I also doubled the recipe.

I’ve made this about 4 times now. It’s so good and lots of protein. Definitely not 7 servings maybe 1. I find the best way to get the water out is so crumble it into a dish towel and twist really hard until all the water comes out.
