METHOD
- Cook your basmati rice as per the packet’s instruction (I love the absorption method!) and set aside
- To make the guacamole, scoop out the avocado flesh and add it to a mixing bowl, add garlic, salt, pepper and a good squeeze of fresh lime, taste and adjust your salt / pepper / lime / garlic mix to your taste – set your guacamole aside
- Slice your tofu into cubes, heat olive oil in a large pan over a high heat, add your tofu and paprika and cook for around 5mins, until your tofu starts to char a little
- Add your red capsicum, green capsicum, and red onion to the tofu mix and cook until the onion is soft, around 5 mins, add nutritional yeast, salt & pepper and stir through, then set aside in a bowl
- In another pan add your black beans and corn, heat over a high heat until charred, then set aside
- To make your spicy pineapple rice, heat some more olive oil in a pan over high heat and add your cooked rice, sprinkle with taco seasoning and add your chopped pineapple, cook, stirring occasionally, until the rice starts to brown, then set aside
- Your now ready to dish up!
- Add shredded lettuce to your serving bowl, then add some of your bean mix, tofu mix and spicy pineapple rice
