Prep Time: 10 min
Cook Time: 10 min
Ingredients
1 Pound
Firm water-packed tofu
1/4 Cup
Water
1/4 Cup
Green onions, chopped
1/4 Cup
Red bell pepper, chopped
1 Tbsp
Canned green chilies, diced
2 Tsp
Soy sauce (optional)
1/4 Tsp
Turmeric
Pinch Of
Crushed red pepper flakes
1/8 Cup
Fresh cilantro, chopped
Mild salsa (optional)
Corn or wheat tortillas
Directions
1
Drain the tofu well, mash and set aside. Place the water in a non-stick frying pan and add the green onions and red bell pepper. Cook stirring frequently for 3 minutes. Add the mashed tofu, green chilies, soy sauce, turmeric and red pepper flakes. Continue to cook and stir for another 5 minutes. Stir in the cilantro. Spoon some of this mixture down the center of a tortilla, add salsa if desired, roll up and eat.
Hint: This may also be made with firm silken tofu, but the consistency will be much softer. A handful of baby spinach leaves could be added just before the end of the cooking time as a delicious variation. I also like to add some cooked chopped potatoes whenever there are some extra in the refrigerator. I add these at the same time that I add the tofu.
