Delicious Pineapple BBQ Tofu Tacos

This recipe features marinated tofu grilled to perfection and topped with fresh pineapple salsa, served in warm tortillas. It takes about 30 minutes to prepare and serves 4 people.

Ingredients

1 block (14 oz) firm tofu, drained and pressed
1/2 cup BBQ sauce
1 cup fresh pineapple, diced
1/4 cup red onion, finely chopped
1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
1 tablespoon lime juice
8 small corn or flour tortillas
Salt and pepper to taste
Optional toppings: avocado slices, jalapeños, or additional cilantro

Instructions

Prepare the Tofu: Slice the pressed tofu into 1/2-inch thick strips. Marinate in BBQ sauce for at least 15 minutes.
Make the Pineapple Salsa: In a bowl, combine diced pineapple, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, and season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
Cook the Tofu: Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium heat. Grill the marinated tofu for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until grill marks appear and the tofu is heated through.
Warm the Tortillas: While the tofu is grilling, warm the tortillas on a skillet or directly over the flame for a few seconds on each side until pliable.
Assemble the Tacos: Place grilled tofu on each tortilla, top with pineapple salsa, and add any additional toppings you desire.
Serve: Enjoy the tacos immediately while warm, with extra BBQ sauce on the side if desired.
