Total 35 minutes

Ingredients

For the tofu:

1 block extra-firm tofu, pressed (especially firm also works well*)
2 tablespoons Taco seasoning
2 tablespoons olive oil
½ teaspoon fine sea salt

For the sweet potato:

1 large sweet potato (cut into bite sized pieces)
½ tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon taco seasoning
salt and pepper to taste

For serving:

1 cup cottage cheese
1 tablespoon hot honey
½ avocado (sliced or diced)
handful of cilantro chopped

Method

1
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
2
Using the large side of a box grater, shred the block of tofu. Some large chunks will fall off so I take those and particularly gently push them through the grater. Place the tofu on the prepared baking sheet.
3
Drizzle the tofu with the oil, salt, and taco seasoning and toss to combine so it is evenly covered. Spread the tofu out into a thin layer. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the tofu is crispy around the edges. Check around 25 minutes to make sure it isn't burning. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly. Once cooled a bit, dice the tofu so it’s in shreds.
4
Meanwhile, toss the sweet potato with the olive oil, salt + pepper, and taco seasoning. Spread in an even layer on a baking sheet and roast for 25 minutes, tossing halfway, until fork tender.
5
Assemble the bowls by dividing the tofu "beef", sweet potato, cottage cheese, avocado, and honey evenly among 2 bowls. Garnish with cilantro and ENJOY!
