📝 Preparation Steps

How To Make The Sofritas Tacos:
2
Roll up the block of tofu in a few layers of paper towels, then place the covered tofu on a plate and place something heavy on top of it to help it drain. I usually use a plastic cutting board on top, covered with a few cookbooks. Let the tofu drain for at least ⏱️ 15 minutes, replacing the paper towels if they get too wet. (*To speed this up even more, cut the tofu into four skinny rectangles, and do the same process with them. The tofu will drain faster if it’s not quite as thick.)
3
While the tofu is draining, make the chipotle sauce (see below).
4
When you’re ready to cook the sofritas, heat the oil over medium-high heat in a stockpot or large saute pan. Add the tofu and red pepper and saute for ⏱️ 5-7 minutes, gently stirring every minute or so, until the tofu is cooked and slightly browned around the edges, and the red pepper is cooked and softened.
5
Add in the beans and chipotle sauce, and stir to combine. Continue cooking over medium-high heat until the sauce reaches a simmer. Then reduce heat to medium-low and simmering for 5 more minutes.
6
Remove from heat and serve immediately, spooning the sofritas into warmed tortillas, topped with your desired toppings.
