Instructions
- First make your tofu ground beef. Press your tofu to release the liquid then crumble it into a large bowl. Toss in your seasonings and mix to coat then spread your tofu onto a baking tray and bake at 400f for 30 minutes.
- While your tofu is in the oven prepare the big mac sauce by blending the ingredients together in a high speed blender. If you do not have a high speed blender make sure to soak your cashews in boiling water for 10 minutes to soften them so the sauce is nice and smooth,
- Once the tofu is finished divide it into your 10 small tortillas and add in some vegan cheese or my healthy homemade vegan cheese sauce - recipe linked above.
- Roll up your taquitos nice and tight then place them into a greased baking dish. Bake at 425 for 25 minutes or until golden and crispy.
- While the taquitos are in the oven chop up your veggies.
- Take your taquitos out of the oven and top with the chopped lettuce, tomatoes, pickles and red onion and drizzle on your big mac sauce!
