Ingredients
  

1 block firm tofu, pressed and cut into 1/2 inch cubes

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 tablespoon soy sauce

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon chili powder

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder

1/2 teaspoon cumin

Salt and pepper to taste

1 red bell pepper, sliced

1 green bell pepper, sliced

1 medium onion, sliced

1 cup corn (fresh, frozen, or canned)

1 avocado, sliced

Small tortillas (flour or corn)

Fresh cilantro for garnish

Lime wedges for serving

Optional: your favorite salsa or hot sauce

Instructions
 

Prepare the Tofu: Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C). In a mixing bowl, combine the pressed tofu cubes, olive oil, soy sauce, smoked paprika, chili powder, garlic powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Toss gently until the tofu is well coated in the marinade.

    Bake the Tofu: Spread the coated tofu cubes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper in a single layer. Bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the tofu is golden brown and crispy.

      Sauté the Vegetables: While the tofu is baking, heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add a splash of olive oil and sauté the sliced bell peppers and onions until they are tender and slightly charred, about 7-10 minutes. Add the corn and cook for an additional 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

        Warm the Tortillas: In another skillet or directly over a flame, warm the small tortillas for about 30 seconds on each side until they’re pliable and slightly toasted.

          Assemble the Wraps: On each tortilla, layer some sautéed pepper and onion mixture, a generous scoop of crispy tofu, and a few slices of avocado. Top with fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lime juice. Add salsa or hot sauce if desired.

            Roll and Serve: Roll up each tortilla tightly. Serve immediately with extra lime wedges and salsa on the side.
