Ingredients

14 oz firm tofu, pressed and drained
1/4 cup maple syrup
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 tablespoon olive oil
8 small corn or flour tortillas
1 cup shredded cabbage or lettuce
1 avocado, sliced
Fresh cilantro for garnish
Lime wedges for serving

Instructions

Prepare the Tofu: Cut the pressed tofu into bite-sized cubes.
Make the Marinade: In a bowl, whisk together maple syrup, soy sauce, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder.
Marinate the Tofu: Add the tofu cubes to the marinade and let them sit for at least 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Cook the Tofu: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the marinated tofu and cook until golden and crispy, about 8-10 minutes, turning occasionally.
Warm the Tortillas: In a separate skillet, warm the tortillas for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.
Assemble the Tacos: Fill each tortilla with the smoky maple glazed tofu, shredded cabbage, and avocado slices. Garnish with fresh cilantro.
Serve: Squeeze lime juice over the tacos and enjoy immediately.
