Spicy Tofu Tacos are a vegetarian taco with crispy baked tofu served with a sweet and spicy slaw that everyone will enjoy. A great tofu recipe for meat lovers.
Combine the tamari sauce, juice of about ¾ of the lime, honey, water, garlic, chili powder, and cumin in a large container. Add the tofu pieces and put in the refrigerator.
Let it marinate for at least 4 hours or overnight. Make sure to turn the tofu every now and then, so all pieces are well marinated.
Cook the tofu:
Preheat the broiler. Place the tofu on a baking sheet (alternately line with parchment for easier cleanup). Broil the tofu for 5 to 7 minutes per side, depending on how crispy you want the tofu.
While the tofu is cooking, add the bag of coleslaw mixture to the remaining marinade. Close the lid and shake, making sure all of the coleslaw is covered in the marinade. Set aside.
Make your tacos:
Mash the avocado. Combine the remaining juice from the ¼ lime with the mashed avocado. Set aside.
Optional: Heat the corn tortillas in the microwave or in a dry skillet over medium-high heat.
Fill the warmed tortillas with the tofu strips, marinated coleslaw and mashed avocado. Serve with salsa if using. Enjoy!!
Notes
*Can use a lemon in place of lime.*Use 12 to 16 ounce package of coleslaw *To make vegan, use 2 teaspoons maple syrup in place of the honey. Or use 1 tablespoon granulated sugar in place of the honey.
