Power up on proteins! Add tofu to your meal with our Protein Boost option. With pre-cut ingredients (down to the minced garlic) it’s amazingly easy to get this fiesta going. Roasted cauliflower florets come out of the oven super-satisfying, dosed with tomato paste, Mexican spices and garlic. A nifty kitchen move sees black beans used two ways: refried to make the taco filling heartier and left whole in a refreshing cabbage salsa.

Preparation
Roast the cauliflower
Preheat the oven to 450°F. On a lined sheet pan, toss the cauliflower (halve if large) with the tomato paste, a drizzle of oil, ⅔ of the spices and S&P. Roast, stirring halfway, 18 to 20 min., until lightly browned and tender. In the last 5 min., sprinkle with ½ the garlic.
Mise en place & cook the tofu
Meanwhile, quarter the lime. Drain and rinse the black beans; mash ½. Pat the tofu dry with paper towel; cut into medium cubes. In a large pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the tofu and cook, 2 to 3 min. per side, until golden and heated through. Transfer to a plate and reserve the pan.
Warm the tortillas
Stack and tightly wrap the tortillas in aluminum foil. Warm directly on an oven rack, 6 to 8 min., until heated through. Keep wrapped until ready to serve.
Make the salsa
Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine the cabbage, vinegar and a drizzle of oil. Massage the cabbage, 1 to 2 min., until softened. Add the whole black beans; toss well.
Make the refried beans
In the reserved pan, heat a drizzle of oil on medium-high. Add the mashed beans, remaining garlic and spices, 4 tbsp water (double for 4 portions) and S&P. Cook, stirring frequently, 2 to 3 min., until the beans are warmed through and the liquid has evaporated. Add the juice of ½ the lime wedges; stir well.
Plate your dish
Divide the tortillas between your plates. Top with the refried beans, cauliflower, tofu, a spoonful of the salsa and the avocado purée. Serve the remaining salsa on the side. Garnish with the remaining lime wedges. Bon appétit!
