Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 14 oz firm tofu
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 medium, diced onion
- 2 minced garlic cloves
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp chili powder
- 0.5 tsp paprika
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 cups rice (cooked)
- 1 cup black beans (canned, drained and rinsed)
- 1 cup, halved cherry tomatoes
- 1 large, sliced avocado
- 1 cup, shredded lettuce leaves
- 4 large flour tortillas
- 2 tbsp, chopped cilantro
- 1 cut into wedges lime
- 0.5 tsp salt

Instructions
Drain and press the tofu to remove excess water. Crumble it into small pieces with your hands or a fork.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and cook until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.
Add the crumbled tofu to the skillet and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to ensure even cooking.
Sprinkle the ground cumin, chili powder, paprika, salt, and pepper over the tofu. Stir well to coat evenly.
Drizzle the soy sauce over the tofu mixture and cook for another 2-3 minutes until heated through. Remove from heat.
Warm the flour tortillas in a skillet or microwave to make them pliable.
Assemble the burritos by spreading a layer of cooked rice onto the center of each tortilla.
Add a generous portion of the tofu mixture, followed by black beans, cherry tomatoes, sliced avocado, shredded lettuce, and chopped cilantro.
Fold the sides of the tortilla over the filling, then roll it tightly into a burrito shape.
Serve immediately with lime wedges on the side for a fresh burst of citrus.
