1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
Salt and pepper to taste
8 small corn or flour tortillas

Instructions

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Make the Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together olive oil, chipotle in adobo, garlic, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper.
Marinate the Tofu: Add the tofu cubes to the marinade and toss to coat evenly. Let it sit for about 10 minutes.
Roast the Tofu: Spread the marinated tofu on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Roast for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.
Warm the Tortillas: While the tofu is roasting, warm the tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side.
Assemble the Tacos: Fill each tortilla with roasted tofu, shredded lettuce, diced tomatoes, and avocado slices. Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve with lime wedges.
