Kimchi Tofu Breakfast Tacos

Health Highlights

Ingredients

1 cup	Kimchi
1 block (12oz)	Tofu, regular, extra firm (organic)
1 tbsp	Sesame oil
1 1/2 tbsp	Soy sauce, tamari (or coconut aminos)
1/2 tsp	Garlic powder
5 leaves	Kale (stems removed, julienned)
3 stalk(s)	Green onion (sliced, divided)
1 1/2 tbsp	Nutritional yeast (optional)
6 small tortilla(s)	Tortilla, corn (gluten-free)
3 sprig	Cilantro (coriander) (for garnish)
1/2 tsp	Sesame seeds (for garnish)
1 fruit	Lime (cut into wedges)

Take out kimchi and allow it to come to room temperature.
Open and drain tofu; give it a quick press to remove moisture if not using a vacuum-packed brand.
In a large wok/skillet, heat sesame oil over medium-high heat. Add tofu, crumbling between your fingers, cook, stirring occasionally, for about 2 -3 minutes. Turn heat to medium, add the tamari and garlic powder, give it a good stir.
Add the kale and the green onion (scallions) and cook, stirring occasionally, until the kale wilts and becomes soft (cover partially to help with the process, about 5 – 7 minutes).
Add the nutritional yeast and kimchi, mix and cook just until kimchi has warmed through, about 1 minute or so. Do not overcook the kimchi, as overcooking will destroy some of the health benefits of the probiotics.
Heat the tortillas, then layer your tortillas with the scramble mixture, a few sprigs of cilantro, a sprinkle of sesame seeds, and a squeeze of lime juice.
