Drain the package of extra firm tofu and gently squeeze out excess water, allowing it to crumble slightly.

5

Add about 1 teaspoon of soy sauce to the tofu mixture.

6

Mix in taco seasonings (smoked paprika, chili powder, cumin, chipotle powder, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt) until well incorporated, ensuring no tofu pieces remain white.

Add about 1/4 cup of canned diced tomatoes to the tofu and let it cook for another 5 minutes.

9

Taste the mixture and adjust seasoning as needed.

10

Add a can of drained and rinsed black beans to the pan and stir well; cook for another 2 minutes to heat through.

Warm corn tortillas in aluminum foil in the oven at 350 degrees.
