Tasty Tuesday: Tofu Rancheros

As a new proponent of meatless living, I've been challenging myself to try out imaginative recipes for dinner. Last week we picked up a slab of tofu, but I couldn't figure out what to do with it. A friend at work suggested that I try one of her favorites: Tofu Rancheros.

Ingredients:
oil (I used grapeseed), tofu, black beans, garlic, corn, salsa, tortillas, avocado, and grated cheese (optional)

Directions:
Scramble the tofu in oil and add 1 clove of chopped garlic. Add cooked black beans and salsa. Mix together and spread onto warm tortillas. I kept the corn on the side, but it can also be added into the tofu mixture. Top tortillas with cheese (if desired), avocado, and eat!

We had this last night, and overall, the flavor turned out pretty well. Next time I'll try cubing the tofu and frying it to improve the texture a bit. Even my husband, who usually hates tofu, was able to stomach this one. Progress!
