Soft Tofu Tacos Recipe

published by pearl2010 on Nov 3, 2010

This is healthy recipe that I would like to share. This is highly protein without a lot of saturated fat and cholesterol.

Ingredients:

2 tablespoons low-sodium taco seasoning mix

8 ounces extra-firm tofu, diced into 1/2-inch pieces (1 cup)

nonstick cooking spray

1/2 cup diced red pepper

1/4 cup diced red onion

2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro

1/2 cup water

4-8 inch whole-wheat tortillas

1/2 cup shredded low-fat cheddar cheese

1/4 reduced-fat sour cream

1 cup shredded romaine lettuce

1/4 cup salsa

Method:

1. Lightly coat a 10-inch nonstick skillet with the nonstick cooking spray and heat on medium setting. Add the tofu and taco seasoning mix and cook for 2-3 minutes until slightly brown. Add the red pepper, red onion, and cilantro, and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.

2. Add the water and allow it to be absorbed. for about 3 minutes. Turn off the heat. Warm the tortillas in the microwave on high for 1 minute. Place approximately 3 tablespoons of the tofu mixture in the center of each tortilla.

3. Top each one with 2 tablespoons of cheddar cheese and 1 tablespoon of sour cream. Divide the lettuce evenly on each taco and top with 1 tablespoon of salsa.
