Ingredients

  • 1 pkg (350 g) extra-firm tofu
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 1 minced clove of garlic
  • 1/2 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp pepper
  • 1 sweet green pepper, chopped
  • 1 jalapeño pepper, chopped
  • 1 cup drained chopped canned tomatoes
  • 4 large flour tortillas
  • 1 cup shredded old Cheddar cheese

Preparation

Pat tofu dry; cut into 1/2-inch (1 cm) cubes. Set aside.

In skillet, heat oil over medium heat; cook onion, garlic, cumin, chili powder, salt and pepper, stirring occasionally, until onion is softened, about 3 minutes.

Add tofu cubes, green and jalapeño peppers, and tomatoes; cook until peppers are softened, about 4 minutes.

Spoon about 1 cup (250 mL) of the tofu mixture along centre of each tortilla; sprinkle with 1/4 cup (50 mL) of the cheese. Fold up bottom edge, then sides; roll up.

Bake on greased rimmed baking sheet in 400°F (200°C) oven until golden and cheese is melted, about 15 minutes. Cut diagonally into halves.
