TOFU FAJITAS



Tofu Fajitas image

Thanks to Dr. Weil for this recipe. For a quick and exciting meal, this healthful version of a popular Mexican dish is hard to beat. The baked tofu neatly replaces beef and, along with olive oil, provides good fat. Nonfat whole-wheat tortillas make very good fajitas. They have none of the hydrogenated fat of conventional white-flour tortillas and give you some fiber.

  • Choose one of the options for crumbles in the notes. If using pea protein crumbles or TVP, rehydrate as directed.
  • Heat a medium skillet and add the rehydrated or prepared crumbles. Depending on what you’re using, you’ll need between 1/2 cup and 1 cup BBQ sauce. If using pea protein crumbles or TVP, you’ll want to use a full cup, since they need to absorb lots of flavor. If using any of the commercially prepared crumbles or Amy’s California Burger, start with 1/2 cup BBQ sauce and taste; then add more to your liking. In either case, store the extra sauce in an airtight container in the fridge and use within a few days (otherwise, pop in the freezer).

  • Slice a drained and pressed block of tofu crosswise into 10-12 rectangles of about 1/2 - 1/3 inch thickness. (A tofu press like tofu press like this one is very helpful for pressing tofu).
  • Cook tofu rectangles in single layer batches in a large heavy-bottomed saute pan with a splash of oil, about 2-3 minutes per side, until each piece becomes slightly crispy and golden in color. Set aside.
  • Slice each cooked tofu rectangle into 3 strips lengthwise, being careful not to break them. Gently toss in the marinade, making sure that all tofu pieces are covered in sauce. I usually let my tofu marinate until the fajita vegetables are cooked (about 5 minutes), but feel free to marinate for up to 30 minutes.
