Cookware
baking sheet pan · chef's knife · citrus juicer (optional) · colander · cutting board · garlic press (optional) · grater · measuring spoons · nonstick skillet · stirring spoon
Directions
- Press the tofu to remove excess moisture, then cut it in half lengthwise and set aside.
- Rinse and dry all produce while the tofu rests.
- Warm a nonstick skillet over medium heat and drizzle in a bit of oil to coat the bottom.
- Add the diced onion and cook, stirring often, until it softens.
- Grate one carrot and mince the celery; add both to the skillet and mix to combine with the onion.
- Mince the garlic and stir it in, letting it mingle with the vegetables for a minute.
- Crumble the tofu into the skillet, splash in soy sauce, and sprinkle in the spices. Increase heat to medium-high and cook, stirring often, until the mixture is softened and begins to brown, about 5 minutes.
- Shave cilantro leaves from the stems, discard the stems, and finely chop the leaves.
- Juice the lime and stir the cilantro into the tofu mixture until evenly coated.
- Spread mayonnaise on the tortillas, top with the tofu scramble, roll tightly, cut in half, and serve.
Two tips
- Prep the cilantro and lime while the tofu presses to save time.
- Swap in extra carrots or celery for more crunch, or serve the burrito with a dollop of mayo on the side if desired.
