Tofu Tacos

Makes 6 tacos

These tacos may be made with fresh or frozen tofu. Freezing tofu gives it a chewy texture somewhat like ground beef. To freeze tofu, place it in its package in the freezer. To thaw, place the package in the refrigerator. Once thawed, remove the tofu from its package and squeeze out the excess water.

2 teaspoons olive oil
1 small onion, chopped
1/2 small bell pepper, seeded and diced (optional)
1/2 pound firm tofu, crumbled (about 1 cup)
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 tablespoon nutritional yeast (optional)
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1/4 cup tomato sauce
6 corn tortillas
1–2 cups shredded lettuce
2 green onions, chopped
1/2 cup chopped tomato
1/3 cup salsa
