  • 2 tbsp soy sauce, or coconut aminos for gluten-free
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp cayenne
  • 1/4 tsp salt, plus more to taste

Cilantro Lime Rice

  • 1 cup uncooked white rice
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 1 clove garlic, crushed
  • 1/2 tsp salt, plus more to taste
  • 1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
  • Juice from 1/2 lime
  • 1 tsp lime zest

Fajita Veggies

  • 1 onion, sliced- I used half red and half yellow onion
  • 2 red bell peppers, sliced
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 2 tbsp oil
  • Salt u0026 pepper

Guacamole

  • 2 large avocados
  • 1/4 red onion, diced
  • Juice from 1/2 lime or lemon
  • 1 tbsp chopped cilantro
  • Salt u0026 pepper
  • Pinch red pepper flakes

Serve with

  • 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
  • Chopped lettuce
  • Diced tomatoes
  • Shredded cheese
  • Hot sauce

Directions

Cilantro Lime Rice

  1. Heat a pot on medium heat and add in the uncooked rice with the tsp of olive oil. Stir it together for 1-2 minutes, then add in the crushed garlic. Pour in two cups of water, raise the flame to high, cover the pot and let the water come to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let the rice cook for about 20-25 minutes, until all the water has evaporated.
  2. Remove the pot from the flame and let the rice sit for 10 minutes, then fluff it with a fork. Mix in the lime juice, lime zest, cilantro and salt. Adjust the salt to your liking and set aside.

Crumbled Tofu

  1. Heat a large skillet on medium heat for 1 minute, then add in the 2 tbsp of oil- nonstick pans work best. Pat the tofu dry then crumble it into bits directly into the pan and let it cook over a medium heat for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  2. Add in the soy sauce, and continue to cook for another 10 minutes, stirring every few minutes until the tofu starts to brown.
  3. After about 20 minutes, add in all of your spices- I like to drizzle an extra tsp of oil when adding the spices. Continue to cook the tofu for another 10-15 minutes until its crisp.

Fajita Veggies

  1. Once your tofu is ready, remove it from the pan and add in 2 tbsp of olive oil. Add in the sliced peppers, sliced onions and spices and cook it over medium heat for 8-10 minutes.

Guacamole

  1. Mash the avocado in a bowl and add in the lime juice, diced red onion, cilantro and spices. Adjust the seasoning to your liking.

Assemble your bowls

  1. Add shredded lettuce to a bowl- I like to add a little lemon juice, salt u0026 pepper to the lettuce. Top it with the tofu crumbles, rice, fajita veggies, black beans, guacamole, diced tomatoes and your favorite shredded cheese. Top everything with hot sauce and enjoy!
