tofu/egg burritos

Brave Noodle (njg)'s Note:

"when life gives you soft tofu, add cheese and salsa" this is my first recipe, woo! during my cooking adventure - i decided to buy tofu. but no one told me to buy firm! so i was stuck with soft tofu and didn't know what to do. so, i spiced it up and made a burrito! (i also do this with eggs, hence the title).

• Total Time: 12 mins
• Prep Time: 2 mins
• Cook Time: 10 mins

Ingredients:

Serves: 2

Yield: 4.0 burritos

• 16 ounces drained tofu (i think any will do, i used soft) or 5 eggs
• 4 large burrito tortillas

all of the rest are to taste

• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 tablespoon cumin
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• 1/4 cup diced onion
• salsa
• shredded cheddar cheese
• lettuce
• sour cream

Directions:

1. if you're using eggs, skip steps 2& 3 and just scramble up the eggs- spices aren't really necessary.
2. saute onions and olive oil and spices for approximately 5 minutes or until onions begin to soften.
3. add tofu and fold together, cover for approximately 5-10 minutes stirring occasionally.
4. 5-10min.
5. warm tortillas in oven or microwave (this will take less than a minute).
6. place spiced tofu (or eggs) on tortilla and add your toppings.
7. fold and eat!

8 ounces of tofu is a LOT for 1 serving, and I had to eat some filling on its own because it didn't all hold inside the tortillas! This also felt a bit dry so I added some salsa while cooking the tofu. I also added some garlic powder and parmesan cheese as well. Thanks for the idea njg, I'll definitely make this again with some more tweaking.
