Ingredients

  • FOR THE SOFRITAS
  • 6 oz can chipotles in adobo
  • 1 small jalapeno
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1/2 cup chunky salsa
  • 1/4 red onion roughly chopped
  • 1/2 lime juiced
  • salt to taste (if needed)
  • sugar optional
  • 16 oz firm tofu
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 15 oz can black beans drained and rinsed
  • FOR THE BOWLS
  • 2 cups leftover cooked white rice or quinoa
  • 3 avocados
  • 1/2 lime juiced
  • 1/4 red onion diced
  • salt to taste
  • cilantro
  • lime wedges

Instructions

  1. Add chipotles, jalapeno, garlic, salsa, red onion and lime to a blender or food processor. Combine until smooth (adding water if needed). Taste and add salt if needed.* Set aside until ready to use.
  2. Drain and press tofu. Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add tofu to the pan and break it apart with a potato masher or wooden spoon. Sauté for 1-2 minutes, or until tofu begins to brown slightly. Add sauce and black beans to the tofu and stir to combine. Allow to cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently.
  3. While the sofritas is cooking, peel and pit avocados. Put in a bowl and mash with a fork. Add lime juice, red onion, salt and cilantro (to taste) and stir to combine.
