Meatless Chorizo
Ingredients
1 package of firm tofu
1 Tablespoon chili powder
1 Tablespoon paprika
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
½ teaspoon cumin
2 teaspoons brown sugar
1 Tablespoon chili sauce
2 Tablespoons soy sauce
1 Tablespoon apple cider vinegar
2 Tablespoons neutral oil
Method
Drain the tofu well, and using your hands, crumble the tofu into a bowl.
Add the chili powder, paprika, cayenne, brown sugar, and cumin, and stir well to coat the tofu thoroughly.
Add the soy sauce, vinegar, and chili sauce, and stir until well combined.
In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the oil and then place the tofu mixture in the pan, letting it sit in a single layer to cook. Let the mixture brown on one side, then turn with a spatula or a spoon and continue the process, about 3-4 minutes on each side.
Place in a dish when done. This can be used in eggs, burritos, and tacos.
Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Or freeze if you prefer.
