Veggie Tacos with Tofu!

This taco recipe is always a hit at my place, even with the meat eaters. Sautéed tofu is a great substitute for chicken or fish. The key is to season it well so it absorbs enough flavour. You can use this tofu recipe for hard or soft tacos. I tend to like it better with soft tacos, tastes more authentic.
