Time 20m

Yield 3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 teaspoons peanut oil or 2 teaspoons olive oil
1 (12 ounce) package firm tofu
1 cup frozen corn kernels
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon chili powder (more to taste)
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 teaspoon balsamic vinegar
romaine lettuce or iceberg lettuce leaf, leaves separated, stiff white ends torn off
1 avocado, sliced

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Throw in the tofu, then break it up into very small pieces. Cook tofu for several minutes, until much of the liquid cooks off and tofu starts to turn golden.
  • Cut kernels off the cobs of corn and throw it in with the tofu. Cook for a few minutes (corn can remain crunchy.).
  • Add garlic, chili powder and soy sauce, then cook until most of the liquid has been absorbed. Turn off heat and stir in balsamic.
  • Pile mixture into romaine hearts, then add sliced avocado. Fold up and chow down!
