Instructions

  1. 1

    Wrap the extra-firm tofu (8 oz) in a clean towel and place a heavy skillet on top to drain for 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    In a small bowl, whisk sea salt (0.5 tsp), garlic powder (0.5 tsp), ground cumin (0.5 tsp), chili powder (0.25 tsp), turmeric (0.25 tsp), and water (1 tbsp) into a pourable sauce.

  3. 3

    Heat olive oil (1 tbsp) in a large skillet over medium heat. Sauté the red onion (0.25 wedge) and red bell pepper (0.5 wedge) for 5 minutes until soft.

  4. 4

    Add the kale (2 cup), cover, and steam for 2 minutes.

  5. 5

    Unwrap the tofu and crumble into bite-sized pieces with a fork.

  6. 6

    Move veggies to one side, add tofu and sauté for 2 minutes. Pour in the spice sauce and cook for another 5-7 minutes until tofu is slightly browned.

  7. 7

    Serve immediately topped with cilantro (1 handful), salsa (2 tbsp), and hot sauce (1 sprinkle) alongside roasted potatoes (1 cup).
