Tofu Scramble Tacos - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    0.333 (16 1/16 ounce) package extra firm tofu, rinsed, drained and pressed*
    1/2 cup diced green pepper
    1/4 cup diced onion
    1/2 cup canned diced tomato (preferably with green chilis)
    1/3 cup corn (if frozen, thaw first)
    2 -3 teaspoons taco seasoning
    salt
    4 corn tortillas
    cooking spray
Preparation
    Cut tofu into 1 inch cubes and add to a skillet coated with cooking spray. Cook tofu over medium heat until lightly browned. Flip as needed to cook evenly. Transfer to a small dish and set aside.
    Re-spray pan with cooking spray. Add green pepper and onion and saute a few minutes until onions are translucent. Add tofu, corn, tomatoes and taco seasoning. Stir to combine everything and use spatula to break up tofu into smaller pieces. Cook for a 3-5 minutes or until extra liquid from the tomatoes has cooked off.
    Fill tortillas and top as desired. Enjoy!
    *Note: Here are some tips on how to drain and press tofu as well as how to freeze and save the remainder of the block. I also like to freeze the rest of the tomatoes in small tupperware containers (about 4 ounce size) so that I have ready to use for future recipes.
