How to Prepare Spicy Sofritas Black Bean Bowls [Vegan, Gluten-Free]
- Add chipotles, jalapeño, garlic, salsa, red onion, and lime to a blender or food processor. Combine until smooth (adding water if needed). Taste and add salt if needed. Set aside until ready to use.
- Drain and press tofu. Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add tofu to the pan and break it apart with a potato masher or wooden spoon. Sauté for 1-2 minutes, or until tofu begins to brown slightly. Add sauce and black beans to the tofu and stir to combine. Allow to cook for an additional 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently.
- While the sofritas is cooking, peel and pit avocados. Put in a bowl and mash with a fork. Add lime juice, red onion, salt and cilantro (to taste) and stir to combine.
- To assemble bowls, add 1/2 cup of rice to the bowl, followed by 1/2 cup sofritas mixture and a dollop of guacamole. Top bowls with additional cilantro and serve with a lime wedge.
