Ingredients

FOR THE GRILLED TOFU

  • 1 block extra firm tofu drained & pressed
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil plus more for frying
  • 1/2 tablespoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/4 cup orange juice
  • salt to taste
  • lime juice to taste

FOR THE STREET CORN SALAD

  • 2.5 cups corn
  • 1 jalapeño finely diced
  • 1/2 red onion finely diced
  • 2 green onions finely diced
  • 2 tablespoons cilantro diced
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 3 ounces vegan feta crumbled
  • 1 lime juiced, plus more to taste
  • salt to taste

FOR THE SPICY MAYO

  • 4 tablespoons vegan mayo
  • 1/2 lime juiced, plus more to taste
  • hot sauce to taste

FOR THE TACOS

  • 12 tortillas I used flour
  • 2 small avocados sliced
  • cilantro, lime wedges for serving

Instructions
 

  • Cut the tofu into 6 thin slices and place in a shallow dish. Add the oil, dry seasonings and orange juice to a bowl and whisk to combine. Pour the marinade over the tofu and brush to coat both sides. Cover and place in the fridge for 30 minutes - or up to 2 hours.
  • Meanwhile, add all of the street corn salad ingredients to a bowl and toss to combine. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed. Set aside.
  • Combine the spicy mayo ingredients in a bowl. Taste and adjust hot sauce & lime juice to taste. Set aside.
  • Heat a griddle or non-stick skillet with a little oil over medium heat. Add the tofu to the skillet and grill until charred on both sides (approx. 5 minutes per side). Brush the tofu with the extra marinade while cooking. Remove from the heat and slice into strips.
  • To assemble, heat the tortillas and top each taco with spicy mayo, grilled tofu, street corn salad and avocado. Top with extra cilantro and serve with lime wedges.
