Asian Tofu Fajitas

We first tasted these fajitas at a friend's housewarming party. Meghan McKinney, the author of this recipe, served them to us on perfectly warmed corn tortillas and a little scoop of brown rice. Needless to say, they were a hit.

6 small whole grain flour or corn tortillas, warmed
¼ cup Bragg Liquid Aminosor low-sodium soy sauce
¼ cup water
½ tbsp maple syrup
1 tbsp nutritional yeast flakes (optional)
¼ tsp cayenne pepper
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 (16 oz) package extra-firm tofu
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 small onion, julienned
2 bell peppers, julienned

1

Make the sauce by mixing together Bragg Liquid Aminos, water, maple syrup, nutritional yeast, cayenne pepper, and oil. Set aside.

2

Prepare the tofu by draining the water out of the container and gently squeezing out the excess moisture with a paper towel. Cut into ½-inch matchsticks.

3

Heat a little olive oil in a shallow pan and add the sliced onions and garlic. When the onions start to become translucent, add the bell peppers.

4

Meanwhile in a separate nonstick pan, heat a little olive oil and cook the tofu over medium-high heat. Cook the tofu on all sides until slightly browned. Transfer them to the pan with the veggies and pour in the sauce mixture. Simmer for 5 minutes and serve in warm tortillas.
