Instructions
Instructions
- First, heat up that olive oil in a big skillet on medium. It’s gonna get things started with a sizzle.
- Next, crumble the tofu straight into the skillet using your hands or a fork. There’s no need for fancy tools here, just get your hands in there.
- Sprinkle in all those spices: nutritional yeast, smoked paprika, cumin, kosher salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and cayenne pepper. Mix everything real good so the flavors get evenly spread.
- Throw in the chopped red pepper and jalapeño too. Stir it up and let the heat help soften those peppers.
- Now cook everything for about 7 to 10 minutes, stirring every now and then. You want the tofu to heat through and get a little crispy on the edges.
- When that’s done, warm up your corn tortillas and pile on your tofu scramble.
- Add on your favorite toppings like avocado slices or salsa for that fresh pop. Serve it up hot and dig in.
Notes
Pre-chop peppers and onions the night before to save time. Use quick release method on pressure cooker to preserve texture. Warm tortillas in air fryer for best taste. Store leftovers in airtight containers; freeze cautiously.
