Take taco night in a new direction with these healthy vegan tacos. We’ve swapped crumbled tofu for the ground beef, without sacrificing any of the savory seasonings you expect in a taco. You can also use the filling in burritos, bowls, taco salads and to top nachos.

Nutrition Notes

  • Tofu is a lean plant-based protein, supporting muscle health while being low in saturated fat.
  • Avocado is rich in fiber and essential nutrients, promoting healthy digestion and skin health.

Ingredients

  • 1 (16 ounce) package extra-firm tofu, drained, crumbled and patted dry
  • 2 tablespoons reduced-sodium tamari or soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 ripe avocado
  • 1 tablespoon vegan mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon lime juice
  • Pinch of salt
  • ½ cup fresh salsa or pico de gallo
  • 2 cups shredded iceberg lettuce
  • 8 corn or flour tortillas, warmed
  • Pickled radishes for garnish

Directions

Step 1

  • In a medium bowl, mix together tofu, tamari (or soy sauce), chili powder, garlic powder, and onion powder. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Add the tofu mixture and cook, stirring occasionally, until it is nicely browned, about 8 to 10 minutes.

Step 2

  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mash the avocado, mayonnaise, lime juice, and salt until smooth.

Step 3

  • Serve the tofu “meat” in tortillas with the avocado crema, salsa (or pico de gallo), and lettuce. If desired, top with pickled radishes.
