Ingredients

  • 1 tbl chili powder
  • 1 tbl cumin
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 lb tofu

Directions

1

We mix a lb. of tofu with a tablespoon each of chile powder and cumin, and a teaspoon of salt. Mash (or process) it all up and cook it over an extremely low light for about 3 hours, stirring occasionally, ending up with it so dry there's no sensible moisture and it seems to keep indefinitely without refrigeration.

2

We grind it up and have what we think is a good meat substitute for pasta sauces, tacos/burritos, potato topping, or even mixing in slaws/salads.
