How to Prepare Flavorful Carrot Tacos [Vegan, Gluten-Free]

Remove the tofu from the package and drain it well. You can leave on roll paper napkins folded in four to absorb all the water that comes out.
Heat a skillet and add the oil. Sauté the onion, be very careful not to burn. Crumble tofu into the onions and stir, allowing the tofu to take on the flavor of the onion.
When onions begin to lightly brown, add the carrots and salt.
Keep stirring until the mixture feels dry and loose, and then add the coriander and carrot greens.

You can assemble these two ways:

Warm the tortillas and make tacos with hot mix. Serve with green sauce.
Spread carrot mixture over warmed tortillas and roll to form taquitos. In a pan, add oil and fry until golden brown. Serve with green salsita.
