Ingredients
  

For the Taquitos

  • 12 Mini Tortaiilas
  • ½ Onion
  • 3 cloves Garlic
  • 1 small Green Bell Pepper
  • 1 small Orange Bell Pepper
  • 1 400g Package Extra Firm Tofu pressed and shredded
  • ½ can Fire Roasted Tomatoes or ½ cup tomato sauce
  • 3 tbsp Taco Seasoning I used a mixture of smoked paprika, cumin, onion powder, garlic powder and chili powder
  • Handful of Cilantro
  • Juice of 1 Lime

For the Cashew Cream

For the Avocado Cilantro Lime Dip

  • 1 Avocado
  • 1 Jalapeno deseeded
  • Handful of Cilantro
  • ¼ cup Hemp Seeds
  • Juice of 1-2 Limes
  • 1 clove Garlic
  • 1 tsp Maple Syrup
  • 3-4 tbsp Water or Plant Milk to Thin

For Topping

Instructions
 

  • Sauté your onion until translucent over medium heat then add in the garlic and bell peppers and cook for a few more minutes.
  • Press your tofu and shred it with a cheese grater (or crumble it with your hands).
  • Add your tofu into the veg mixture along with the fire roasted tomatoes and taco seasoning.
  • Make your cashew cream by blending together the raw cashews and water until smooth. If you do not have a high speed blender make sure to soak the cashews in boiling water first for 15 minutes.
  • Mix your cashew cream in and add in a handful of chopped cilantro and the juice of 1 lime. Mix to combine.
  • Add the tofu mixture into your tortillas and roll them up nice and tight!
  • Place your rolled taquitos into a greased baking dish side by side so they do not unravel and brush on some olive oil for color (or omit for oil free).
  • Bake at 400f for 25-30 minutes until golden.
  • In the meantime make your avocado cilantro dip by blending together all of the ingredients.
  • Once the taquitos are golden and crispy take them out and serve! You can serve them like a pyramid and add some toppings on top or serve everything separately with sides of guacamole & salsa!
