INSTRUCTIONS

1
Prepare the slaw

Preheat oven to 350°F for the tortillas. Add just 2 tsp lime juice, mayo, cilantro, just half the garlic, coleslaw blend, and a pinch of salt and pepper to a medium bowl and toss to combine. (4-serving meal: use 4 tsp lime juice) TIPS: You can also use a toaster oven or microwave to warm the tortillas. Keep remaining lime juice for your own use.

2
Make the chipotle sauce

Add remaining garlic, chipotle pepper, reserved adobo sauce, almond butter, tamari, 2 tbsp warm water, and ¼ tsp salt to a medium bowl and stir the chipotle sauce until smooth. Wrap tortillas in foil and place in the oven to warm, 3 to 4 minutes. (4-serving meal: use 4 tbsp warm water, ½ tsp salt)

3
Crisp the tofu

Heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add tofu and cook until crispy in places, 3 to 5 minutes. Add chipotle sauce and cook, another 2 to 3 minutes. (4-serving meal: use 2 tbsp vegetable oil)

4
Serve

Top the warm tortillas with chipotle tofu, creamy cilantro slaw, and red piquanté peppers. Serve with lime wedges. Bon appétit! TIP: Be sure to get the crispy bits out of the skillet and into your tacos.
