Ingredients
  

  • 1 block extra firm tofu pressed
  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tbsp paprika
  • 1 tbsp garlic powder
  • 1 tbsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 3/4 cup cooked black beans
  • 1/2 cup salsa
  • 1 shallot sliced
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp liquid smoke
  • 1/2 cup vegetable broth
  • 3 cups cooked brown basmati rice
  • 1/4 cup chopped cilantro or parsley
  • 1/4 lime
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1/2 cup cooked corn
  • 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1/2 avocado sliced
  • 2 tbsp crumbled tortilla chips
  • 2 tbsp grated vegan cheese

Instructions
 

Sofritas

  • Slice the tofu up into 1/2-inch thick slices.
  • Add the oil to a large pan over medium-high heat. When the oil is shimmery (about 1 minute), add the tofu slices in one layer to the pan.
  • Cook the tofu until the bottom side is golden brown (around 7 minutes). Carefully flip them over and cook until both sides are golden brown (another 7 minutes).
  • Using a spoon or chopsticks, begin breaking upon the tofu until it resembles crumbled meat.
  • Add the paprika, garlic powder, chili powder, and cumin.
  • Add the black beans and shallots.
  • Add the salsa.
  • Add the soy sauce and liquid smoke.
  • Add the vegetable broth and stir everything together. Cook until the liquid reduces all the say down (around 3 minutes).

Bowl

  • Add chopped cilantro or parsley to cooked rice.
  • Squeeze lime juice into rice and next add sea salt. Stir everything together.
  • Scoop your rice into the bowls. Then, scoop sofritas into your bowls.
  • Garnish with corn, tomatoes, tortilla chips, avocado, and grated cheese.
