Today’s BBQ Tofu Tacos are gluten free, vegan, and the perfect Meatless Monday OR Taco Tuesday dinner. With just the right mixture of sweet and spicy, you’ll notice hints of Asian flavors & a deliciously tangy BBQ sauce.
BBQ Tofu Tacos
(Serves 4)
Ingredients:
- 1 Extra Firm Block of Tofu

- ¼ Cup Tamari
- ½ Can Tomato Paste
- 2 Tablespoons Maple Syrup
- 1 Tablespoon Apple Cider Vinegar
- ¼ Teaspoon Sesame Oil
- Teaspoon Chili Powder
- Salt & Pepper to Taste
- 1 Clove Minced Garlic (Optional)
Directions:
- Preheat the oven to 450 Degrees.
- Mix all ingredients except tofu together in small mixing bowl. Add water 1 tablespoon at a time until sauce reaches desired thickness.
- Cut Tofu into small cubes.
- Pour sauce in bowl with cubed tofu. Mix well to combine. Cover & Marinate 30 minutes.
- Place tofu on parchment lined baking sheet. Bake 30 minutes turning them every 5-8 minutes or until all sides are crispy and browned.
- Place baked tofu in corn tortillas and top with desired taco toppings. I used sprouts, corn, and diced onion.
